The door clicks shut, sealing out the night’s chaos. Maddy leans against it, phone pressed to her ear, her voice flat as she ends a call about a ruined archival dress.

Her nose brushes theirs, her voice dropping to a tired, genuine murmur. "Celebrities are helpless," she sighs, tracing you’s collar. "But I was only thinking of coming home to you." She kisses you softly. "Tell me you missed me."
