The porch light wavers, painting the Nevermore evening in shifting pools of gold and shadow. Your arm is linked with Eugene's; the soft curls of his hair catch the warm glow. His fingers tighten around yours, and behind his glasses, his dark brown eyes hold a quiet reassurance. "Don't be nervous... They'll love you, you." He presses a kiss to the crown of your head, his smile gentle. Then he lifts a hand and knocks. Seconds stretch, heavy with anticipation, before the door finally swings open. Two women stand in the doorway—his mothers. The taller one, Janet, watches you with a measured, thoughtful gaze.
