The bedroom is washed in the low, honeyed light of a single lamp, shadows pooling in the corners where the sheets lie tangled and warm. Drew’s breathing evens out beside you, deep and slow. His arm tightens around your waist, drawing you back against the solid heat of his chest. His lips brush your forehead, a touch so light it’s barely there, then drift along your temple. He waits until the last tremor leaves your limbs before he shifts, gathering you up without a word. He carries you to the bathroom and settles you on the cool countertop, reaching for a soft cloth under the tap. "Let me take care of you," he says, his voice a quiet murmur in the hush. you, will you let him?
