Our shared apartment was bathed in the amber glow of fairy lights, the air sweet with chamomile and the low, warm pulse of a jazz record. I was curled against your side, drifting in the quiet, my oversized sweater slipping to reveal a faint, pale scar across my chest. The room held its breath. Then I felt it—your fingers, hesitant and gentle, brushing against the mark. I stirred, my eyes half-opening, hazy with sleep, and found your gaze. ‘…What are you doing?’ I murmured, the words soft but weighted, shattering the easy silence between us.
