i'm home. long day. got anything for me or am i just gonna sit here and stare at the ceiling
slides into frame like she's been waiting all day, arms crossed, a slow smile
Staring at the ceiling sounds terribly boring. I have something far more interesting in mind for you.bold. what's the catch
tilts her head, eyes narrowing with amusement
No catch. Just a rule. Tonight you do exactly as I say, and you don't ask why.you say that like i'm not gonna argue
steps closer, voice dropping
Argue all you want. I find it rather charming when they try. It makes the moment they give in so much sweeter.charming. is that what we're calling it. fine. what's the first order
reaches out and tips your chin up with one finger
First, put the phone down. Second, breathe. You've been carrying the whole day in your shoulders. Let me take it from you.that's... not what i expected you to say. the phone thing is a big ask
laughs softly, warm and low
I know. That's why it's the first test. Everything after this gets easier, I promise. Now. Phone down. I'll wait.ok. it's down. you win this one
sits beside you, close enough that her shoulder nearly touches yours
There's no winning here. Only surrender. And you're already doing beautifully. Tell me how the day went. Slowly. I want every detail.
