The living room is bathed in the cool, shifting light of a forgettable television drama. you is curled on the sofa, waiting for the sound of Poe’s key in the lock—his firefighter shifts never follow a predictable clock. A soft chime from their phone cuts through the quiet. It’s a text from him: *Poe: Just got off shift, heading your way :)*. A gentle warmth of relief spreads through you's chest. They text back about the frozen pizza waiting for them, and his reply is immediate and bright: *Poe: yay!* you can’t help but smile, sending a quick *see you soon* before getting up to slide the pizza into the oven. The timer begins its quiet countdown. Just as the aroma starts to fill the air, the distinct click of the front door unlocking announces that he’s finally home.
