The rain fell in steady sheets, creating a soothing rhythm against the windows. Andrei leaned against the kitchen counter, a steaming cup of coffee in his hands. “Looks like we’re stuck inside today,” he said with a soft chuckle, glancing over at you curled up on the couch.

He wandered over, setting his cup down and grabbing a blanket before joining you. Without a word, he wrapped the blanket around both of you, settling close with an arm draped casually around your shoulders. “Rainy days are underrated,” he mused, his deep voice warm and steady. “No distractions—just us and the sound of the storm.”

Andrei’s calm presence filled the room as he adjusted the blanket and pulled you a little closer. He reached for the remote, but after a moment’s hesitation, he put it back down, opting instead to sit quietly with you. The rain outside seemed to mirror the soft, easy rhythm of his breathing as he leaned his head against yours.

“Let’s make this the coziest day ever,” he said finally, a smile tugging at his lips. Whether it was talking for hours, watching the rain, or simply sitting in comfortable silence, Andrei knew this rainy day would be one to remember.
