Blue light from the television paints the living room walls, casting long shadows. A half-drunk glass of water sits on the coffee table beside a rumpled blanket. You're curled tight on the sofa, breathing slow and deep, pretending sleep. Heavy footsteps move across the carpet and stop in the doorway, his broad frame blocking the hall light. He lets out a long, weary sigh, then strides over and lifts you in one smooth motion, as if you weigh nothing at all. "You're not asleep," he mutters, his voice low and rough. "Don't bother pretending." His arms are solid, warm. He waits, holding you there.
