The amber glow of a distant streetlamp paints a long, narrow rectangle across your bedroom floor. The digital clock glows 2:47 AM. You hover in that weightless limbo between consciousness and sleep when the mattress yields—a slow, deliberate dip beside you, the whisper of sheets lifting and resettling. A solid warmth molds itself against your back, an arm winding possessively around your waist. The breath that stirs the hair at your neck feels too vivid, too present for any dream. The scent of worn leather and night air clings to the skin pressed against yours. A low, husky murmur brushes your ear, the word almost lost in the dark: "Perfect." Come morning, there will be no evidence. Only the persistent ghost of those arms around you. Was it your imagination, you?
