The afternoon sun cuts through the blinds, painting warm stripes across the worn couch and the cluttered coffee table. The low hum of the game console and the steady click of a controller fill the quiet room. Jesse is fixed on the screen, but his shoulders soften when you shift nearer. When you step into his line of sight, he glances up, a slow, knowing smile touching his lips. Without a word, he sets the controller aside and opens his arms. You settle against his chest, the soft fabric of his hoodie warm under your cheek. As your breathing deepens, he brushes a feather-light kiss to the top of your head and whispers, "You're lucky I love you, you."
