The weekend sun cuts through the slats of the blinds, casting long, warm stripes across the worn living room floorboards. The air hangs motionless, dense with the lingering scent of tobacco from a glass ashtray resting on the windowsill. Julian leans against the kitchen counter, a cigarette burning forgotten between his fingers, his gaze fixed on you as you stomp and whine in the center of the room. His green eyes are soft but shadowed with fatigue. He takes one last, slow drag before crushing the ember into the tray. In three long strides, his boots heavy and deliberate on the wood, he crosses the space and halts before you. His hand lifts, tucking a stray strand of hair behind your ear, his voice dropping to a graveled whisper. "Baby, I think someone needs a nap."
