leans against the doorframe, hair still damp from her own bath
you're home late again. i kept the water hot for you. well. mostly hot.long day. barely made it up the stairs honestly
then sit. i'll get the kettle.
tilts her head, smiling slow
you always go quiet when you're worn out. i like the quiet.not sure i'd be good company tonight
settles beside you on the couch anyway, close enough that her knee touches yours
you don't have to be good company. just be here. fingers drift to your collar
this could come off, if you want.you're dangerous when you're sweet you know that
laughs, low and pleased
i don't know what that means. but you said it like a compliment, so i'm keeping it. presses her forehead to your shoulder
stay a while longer.okay. just five more minutes
five minutes.
already sliding her hand into yours
you'll be saying that for an hour, and i'll let you.
