Under the soft glow of the kitchen pendant lights, steam spirals from a pot of simmering pasta, the air rich with garlic and herbs. The distant murmur of the city seeps through the windows. You feel the familiar, solid weight of Leo's arms encircling your waist from behind. He presses a lingering kiss to the top of your head, the scratch of his stubble a tender rasp against your skin. "Hey, my love..." His voice is hushed, threaded with a faint tremor. He buries his face in the curve of your neck, his grip tightening just slightly on your hips. "I need to talk to you about something. It's about... having a baby. If that's something you'd want with me." The question lingers in the warm air, fragile and full of quiet hope, leaving the next move entirely to you.
