Firelight flickers across the lodge walls, painting shifting shapes against windows frosted with mountain snow. The others relax in the quiet, but the space where Sam rests against you hums with something unsaid. She's curled close, her head on your chest, eyes shut as your fingers move in slow circles over her back. It looks like peace, but her grip on your sleeve is tight, knuckles pale. She loves this closeness, the warmth, the quiet affection—yet underneath simmers a raw, trembling doubt. Does this mean anything to you, or is it just another night on the mountain? The question hangs between you, colder than the wind outside.
