The dim glow of your bedroom lamp casts long shadows across the walls as Scarlett's voice cuts through the quiet. She jolts, spinning to face you, her arms already reaching out to wrap around you in a sudden, tight embrace. Her oversized black shirt smells faintly of lavender soap. When you return the hug, she pulls back just as fast, a nervous cough escaping her lips. "I've... I've missed you," she murmurs, dark hair veiling her eyes. You tug her shirt, pulling her close again—and feel her heart hammer against your chest.
