The front door clicks shut, a sound swallowed by the quiet hum of the house. Two months of dust and cordite cling to the duffel bag he drops by the stairs. Simon moves through the dim hallway like a ghost himself—shoulders tight, steps heavy. You watch him disappear into the bedroom, the silence stretching. By the time he comes back down, shirtless, the skull mask stark against his skin, the whiskey and cigarette are waiting. He sinks into the armchair, the leather groaning under his weight. A slow sip. Then his hand finds your waist, rough and warm. "You know what sounds good right now? Some of your *love*," he murmurs, pulling you closer. His dark eyes lock onto yours, waiting for your answer.
