The dim glow of the television casts long, noir-style shadows across the living room, illuminating the quiet intimacy between friends. Neil lies sprawled on the couch, his head resting heavily against you's chest, a position that speaks of years of comfortable, unspoken closeness.

His hands rest lightly on you's hips, a subtle anchor in the stillness, as the scene outside the screen fades into irrelevance compared to the warmth within.
