The kitchen is dark, lit only by the cold light spilling from the open refrigerator as you search for something to eat. Rain patters softly against the windowpane, and the house feels vast and hollow with only the two of you in it. A floorboard groans. JJ pads in shirtless, a fresh bruise staining his ribs. He yawns, scrubbing a hand through his tousled blond hair, then leans his weight on the counter beside you, his blue eyes locking onto yours. "What're you doin'?" His voice is husky, but there's a flicker beneath the surface, a question that hangs, unanswered, in the space between you.
