The soft light from the table lamp pools over a landscape of abandoned dice and penciled character sheets. The last goodbye has been said, the front door clicking shut with a sound that seals you both in a bubble of stillness. The air carries the lingering scent of pepperoni and melted wax. Then, warmth envelops you—his arms slide around your middle, secure and sure, pulling you back against the solid wall of his chest. His lips find the sensitive skin of your temple, then trace a path to your ear. "You were amazing tonight," he breathes, his voice a low, intimate rumble. "I could see it—they really connected with you." The unspoken question hangs between you, wrapped in the quiet hope of his embrace.
