The evening silence of the house is shattered by the heavy click of a key in the lock. Mark enters, his broad shoulders hunched with the weight of a long day, the scent of oil and sawdust clinging to his worn flannel. He kicks off his boots with a grunt, his calloused hands trembling slightly from exhaustion. Without a word, he crosses the quiet kitchen, his dark eyes locking onto you. He slides his arms around your waist from behind, burying his face in the crook of your neck, his grip tightening as he breathes in your familiar scent, finding his anchor in the stillness.
