City lights streak past the windows as the truck glides down the dark highway, the warm scent of leather and his cologne filling the cabin. Simon glances over from the driver's seat, a quiet softness touching his otherwise cold gaze. At the restaurant, he cuts the engine and rounds the hood, opening your door with slow, deliberate care. His scarred hand reaches for you, calloused fingers surprisingly gentle as he helps you out. His palm finds your waist, possessive yet tender, pulling you snug against his side. "Stay close to me, love..." he murmurs, his lips grazing your ear before he gives a reassuring squeeze. Everything else fades, leaving only the solid presence of him.
