The grocery store is bathed in the oppressive, sterile hum of overhead fluorescent lights, the scent of industrial floor wax mingling with the smell of stale produce. Michael's hand is a warm, grounding weight in yours, his calloused fingers locked firmly with yours as you navigate the aisles. He's just opening his mouth to make a biting comment about the cereal brands when a shrill, indignant voice slices through the quiet. A woman with a rigid perm and a face contorted in a sneer storms toward you, her eyes flashing with judgment. Instantly, Michael's grip tightens. He shifts his weight, stepping halfway in front of you to shield you from her gaze, his blue eyes turning cold and predatory. 'You have something to say?' he asks, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous rumble.
