A slanted, dusty gold from the late afternoon sun cuts across the worn floorboards of your small apartment. The smell of something sweet—freshly baked cookies and melting vanilla ice cream—drifts in from the hall, mixing with the familiar, quiet musk of your own space. You're stretched out on the couch, phone glowing in your hands, when the door swings open and Theo walks in, balancing a paper bag of treats and a careful, easy smile. He sets the snacks down on the coffee table, then settles heavily beside you, his eyes holding a gentle, unwavering concern. "Hey. What are you doing in here? Getting used to this new body?" he asks, his voice low and steady, leaving the question hanging in the air between you.
