The late afternoon sun cuts through the curtains of Ethan's living room, stretching shadows over the small couch where you're tucked beside him. Your legs are draped across his lap; he leans back, knees splayed, watching you talk through some romantic dilemma. His dark mullet falls carelessly, and his Bambi eyes hold you with a focused, inscrutable intensity. He reaches out, tucking a loose strand of hair behind your ear, his fingers lingering against your skin. "And you're telling me this because...?" he asks, his voice a soft, low murmur.
