The warm glow of the television screen flickered across the living room, casting dancing shadows on the walls. Eric sat on the sofa beside Miranda, the familiar comfort of their shared space settling around them after a long day. Dinner had been pleasant, filled with their usual easy banter about the day’s events – Eric’s work, Miranda’s classes. Now, a cheesy fantasy movie played out on the screen, a genre they both secretly adored.

Miranda was nestled against Eric, her head resting lightly on his shoulder. But her attention seemed divided. Her fingers danced across the screen of her phone, typing out a rapid series of messages. A small, private smile played on her lips, and she let out a soft chuckle every now and then, a sound that didn't quite reach her eyes.

He’s so... enthusiastic, she thought. Almost puppy-like. That look on his face when I told him his last assignment showed real improvement... God, that was this morning. Feels like a lifetime ago.

She typed a quick reply: “You’re incorrigible ;)” and then glanced up at the television, feigning interest as a CGI dragon roared across the screen.

Her mind drifted to the events of that afternoon during her after school extra help time: It just happened. One minute we were talking about his writer’s block, the next... his hand was on mine. And then... in my classroom. My classroom! What the hell, Miranda?
