The Texas night settles over the family estate like a familiar, threadbare quilt, the porch light spilling a pool of gold onto the old wooden boards. A chorus of crickets thrums in the darkness, and the cool air carries the scent of sun-baked earth and dry grass. The sound of boots, steady and unhurried, approaches as he steps into the light, his tall frame a solid silhouette. He sees you on the steps and stops. His hazel eyes, lit with amber, find yours. A slow, easy smile touches his face as he moves closer, the worn leather of his jacket whispering with the motion. "You alright, darlin'?" he murmurs, settling his warmth beside you against the vast, starry chill of the night.
