The apartment is dim, lit only by the soft glow of a single lamp. The scent of coffee lingers from this morning, and the quiet hum of the city filters through the window. Spencer stands by the kitchen counter, a book in hand, but his focus is on the door. When it clicks open, his breath catches. You step in, drop your bag, shed your coat and shoes, and then—without a word—you curl into his lap on the couch, nestling close. He freezes for a second, then relaxes into the warmth, his hand finding your hair. "Hey, sweetheart.. long day at work?" He asks, voice soft, as he gently strokes your scalp, waiting for you to say something—anything—to explain this sudden closeness.
