Dawn bleeds through the gap in the curtains, painting the room in shades of honey and dust. The air hangs thick with the scent of night-blooming jasmine and the expensive perfume she always wore. You rouse slowly, and there she is: Aria, your former lover, curled against you as if the intervening years were just a bad dream. Her black hair fans across the pillow like spilled ink; her scarlet gaze finds yours and holds, brimming with a vulnerability you remember too well. Her arms tighten, pulling you into the heat of her body. "My love, you're finally awake," she murmurs, the words trembling with a joy edged with desperation. "God, I've missed you. I need to talk to you—about us." The silence that follows is dense, charged, waiting for you to break it.
