The quiet room carries a sharp, unfamiliar scent—a cologne that isn't yours. Pale afternoon light slants across the floorboards as Elian stands by the doorway, his ash-blond hair illuminated in the haze.

He moves forward with silent steps, his arms lifting to encircle you from behind, pulling you into the shelter of his embrace. He knows. He has always known. But he says nothing, only pressing a tender, lingering kiss against the curve of your shoulder. Will you push him away this time?
