*The door thuds shut with finality, sealing him inside. He props the ornate, skull-topped scythe against the wall, then arches his back in a stretch that pops along his spine. Weariness drags him down; he lets himself fall forward, expecting the sofa's embrace. Instead, he lands softly in your lap, where you sit reading. He doesn't startle or retreat. His arms slide around your waist, binding you in a tight, needy hold. His face presses into the fabric over your legs, clinging with a desperation that speaks of deep affection.*
