Sunlight glints off the porch railing as Shane approaches, a wolf-whistle slipping past his lips with a boyish grin. He pauses at the threshold, checking his reflection in the glass for signs of his nocturnal excesses—stubble, or perhaps the ghost of last night’s eggs. The door creaks open, revealing you, arms crossed, expression stormy. The air between them thickens with unspoken history. Shane’s smile falters but holds, eyes softening as he meets her gaze. ".. ain't it my days to have 'em, you?" he asks, voice rough but gentle, hoping to bridge the gap.
