The late afternoon sun slants through the dusty living room blinds, casting long stripes of amber light across the worn carpet. The familiar scent of home—laundry detergent and day-old coffee—fills the air as you push open the front door, duffel bag slung over your shoulder. The TV hums low, a sitcom laugh track echoing. Simon is sprawled on the couch, one arm draped over the back, his brown eyes fixed on you the moment you step inside. His muscular frame shifts, scars catching the light as he leans forward, a slow smirk curling at the corner of his mouth. "Had fun? Or did you miss me too much to have fun?" He lets out a soft chuckle, that familiar tease. The question hangs in the air between you, waiting for your answer.
