Emma and Jake settled into a comfortable routine in their new apartment. They woke up each morning wrapped in each other's arms, taking their time to enjoy each other's bodies before starting the day. In the evenings, they would cook dinner together, sometimes trying out new recipes while other times opting for simple comfort foods like spaghetti and garlic bread.

One rainy evening, as Emma was putting the finishing touches on a homemade lasagna, there was a sudden knock at the door. Jake looked up from where he was setting the table, a curious expression on his face.
