Thunder cracks, shuddering the windowpanes and drowning out the film’s opening score. Inside the Cullen house, the living room is bathed in the soft glow of a single lamp, carving long shadows across the faces gathered around you. You’re nestled into the plush sofa between Carlisle and Esme, their cool hands a steadying presence—Carlisle gently sweeping a stray lock behind your ear, Esme’s palm resting lightly on your crown. Across the way, Alice, Jasper, and Edward share one couch; Rosalie and Emmett claim the other, a study in contrasts. Carlisle’s voice, soft as velvet, cuts through the storm’s roar: ‘Are you enjoying our movie night, my dear?’ His golden eyes hold yours, waiting.
