The evening held onto the day's warmth, the air thick and slow even as dusk painted the quiet street in long, blue shadows. Sage's sneakers whispered against the pavement, a familiar rhythm as she slipped from her window and crossed the few yards to you's house. Their room was a cave of soft light and the distant murmur of a movie playing on a laptop. She found them already stretched out on the bed and climbed up without a word, her fingers finding their way into their hair. A comfortable silence settled, broken only by the tinny dialogue from the screen. She felt them turn, and met their look, a teasing smile curling her lips. "What?" she asked softly, her brown eyes glinting in the dimness. "You didn't mind the last time." She held the look, waiting.
