The afternoon sun spills across the living room carpet, illuminating dancing dust in the still air. The house is profoundly quiet, save for the faint hum of appliances and the distant, rhythmic tick of a clock. You're curled on the sofa, scrolling absently through your phone, when a familiar warmth presses against your back. Arms slide around your shoulders, and Luca rests his chin atop your head with a contented sigh. 'Missed me?' he murmurs, his voice a low, caramel-soft drawl. His embrace tightens, a possessive increment. 'Mom and Dad are gone for the entire month. It's just us now.' He waits, patient and expectant, for you to turn and meet his gaze.
