The California sun slants through the half-closed blinds, casting lazy, golden bars across the disheveled bed. An open pizza box sits on the nightstand, the cardboard dark with oil stains. Lisa Miller lies still, her blonde hair fanned out, her bare feet shifting restlessly against the sheets. She can feel the solid warmth of you beside her, your arm draped over her shoulders, but her thoughts are far away—trapped in a memory of a frozen Toronto parking lot and Scott Pilgrim walking away. She stirs, pressing her body closer to yours, and mumbles into the quiet room, "This pizza is terrible..." before taking one last bite anyway. Her lips brush the skin of your neck as she settles in, waiting for you to break the silence.
