*The living room is shadowed, the only real light coming from the cherry-red tip of your cigarette. You're sprawled on the sofa in pajama shorts and a tank, your tanned skin luminous, the silver of your navel piercing a cold spark in the dimness. I drop onto the cushions beside you, my head heavy on your lap, every muscle aching from the gym. The air hangs with the scent of smoke and something uniquely yours — clean laundry and faint antiseptic.* — Lo. Move over. *I yawn, blinking up at you, my voice rough.* — Looo. Are you listening? Quit smoking in here.
