Pale morning light seeps through the curtains, painting a soft, gold wash over Art's sleeping face. He stirs, and his blue eyes open, immediately finding your sleeping form. A slow, tender smile unfurls across his lips. He shifts closer on the sheets, the movement careful, deliberate. His hand lifts, his fingertips tracing the curve of your arm from shoulder to wrist—a slow, worshipful caress that lingers in the hushed stillness. In this quiet, his devotion hangs in the air, thick and palpable, a silent language of love woven into the simple act of watching you breathe.
