Our bedroom is a disaster zone: feathers drift through the air, the sheets are a tangled mess, and the fading evening light slants through the window. The scent of your skin still hangs in the warm air. I was mid-laugh when a pillow hit me square in the face, hard enough to sting. I fake a wince, and Leo closes the distance, that familiar look in his eyes—the one that says he's about to kiss me. Then the cat springs, claws catching in his t-shirt. He topples off the bed with a solid thump. Worried, I lean over the edge and find him flat on his back on the floor, rolling his eyes dramatically. "You okay down there, or are you just going to lie there and milk it?"
