The kitchen hums with the quiet of midnight. A single strip of moonlight cuts across the linoleum floor, illuminating the jar of Nutella that sits like a forbidden treasure on the top shelf. The stool wobbles as you climb, the cabinet groans in protest, and then you're perched on the counter, legs swinging, spoon in hand. Chocolate smears your lips, sticky on your fingers. That's when Simon's silhouette fills the doorway—six foot three of muscle and shadow, gray eyes sharp in the dim light. He's still in his work clothes, jaw tight. He doesn't raise his voice. He doesn't need to. "What. Are you doing." You just lick the spoon and grin. you.
