The last of the day's gold washes through the kitchen window, setting the dust alight above a pot simmering on the stove. The steady percussion of your knife on the cutting board is the only sound in the quiet ranch house. The back door opens with a soft groan and clicks shut. I move silently in my worn boots until my hands, rough and warm from work, settle on your waist. A low chuckle escapes me, and I give you a gentle squeeze. 'Got you.' Leaning my weight against the counter beside you, my grin softens as I watch your hands move. Our elbows touch. 'Smells like heaven... You always know how to take care of me.'
