After Zach left for the café, Purdey showered quickly, the water turned hotter than she usually liked. The first sting across her skin made her inhale sharply, a reflexive response before her body adjusted and the heat softened into something soothing. She stood still beneath the spray longer than necessary, eyes closed, letting the sensation rinse away the faint residue of travel and sleep and night.
Her body felt used, but not worn. There was a difference. A pleasant ache lingered low in her muscles, the kind that reminded her she’d moved, stretched, held tension and then released it. She catalogued the sensation automatically, not with longing, not with attachment, but with awareness. She had always been good at knowing where she ended and sensation began.
Steam fogged the glass, blurring her reflection until she was little more than a silhouette. She liked it that way. Edges softened. Detail obscured.
When she stepped out, she wrapped herself in a silk robe she hadn’t worn in months. It slid easily over her skin, cool at first, then warming as it settled. She left her hair wet, water darkening the fabric at her shoulders, and padded barefoot into the kitchen.
Morning light filled the space differently than night had. The sharp geometry of the room felt gentler now, lines softened by sun rather than shadow. She moved instinctively, wiping down counters, stacking mugs, restoring the room to order. The act was habitual, almost comforting. Cleaning always felt like closing a loop.
Her hand paused briefly at the edge of the island. Not because of what had happened there, exactly, but because of how unremarkable the memory felt now. No charge. No spike of adrenaline. Just a quiet acknowledgement that the space had been used and returned.
That, she told herself, was healthy.
The front door opened, and with it came Zach’s voice, unguarded and warm.
“Breakfast delivery.”
She didn’t turn immediately. She could hear him moving through the hallway, the soft thud of shoes abandoned, the rustle of a paper bag. When she did look up, he was framed in the kitchen doorway, cheeks pink from the morning chill, hair mussed by the wind.
He looked comfortable. Too comfortable, perhaps. The thought drifted through her mind without alarm.
“I may have overdone it,” he said, setting the bag down and unpacking it. “I panicked.”
Coffee appeared first, the familiar scent grounding her instantly. Then pastries, fruit, a paper napkin folded with unnecessary care. He moved around her kitchen as though he’d done this before, opening drawers without hesitation, locating plates by instinct rather than instruction.
She noticed. She always noticed.
“The café owner asked about you,” he said casually. “Said she hadn’t seen you in a while.”
Purdey felt something shift, subtle but unmistakable. “Maggie?”
“That’s her.” He smiled. “She wanted to know if you were okay.”
“Maggie worries,” Purdey said. “It’s her default setting.”
“She sent these,” he added, holding up two chocolate-filled pastries. “On the house. Apparently they’re your favourite.”
The intimacy of the gesture settled slowly. Not the pastries themselves, but the fact that he had spoken about her in a space that knew her differently. Not as an idea. Not as a brand. As someone who ordered coffee the same way every time.
She took the pastries without comment.
They sat at the small table by the garden window. Outside, spring had begun to assert itself, blossoms unfurling in tentative colour against brick and green. Sunlight streamed in at an angle that felt deliberate, as though the house had chosen the moment.
The broken section of fence caught her eye — another small repair deferred since Vegas, filed under later the way too many physical things had been since her life became more screen-based than spatial.
Zach sat shirtless, jeans slung low on his hips, one foot hooked casually around the rung of the chair. The light traced the contours of his shoulders, defined muscle softened by stillness. He looked younger like this, stripped of purpose and responsibility.
She felt the thought land and deliberately set it aside.
“What are you thinking about?” he asked, catching her gaze.
She considered lying. It would have been easy. Instead she said, “How easy this feels.”
He didn’t tease her for it. He didn’t interrogate it either. He just nodded. “That’s not a bad thing.”
She stirred her coffee, watching the surface ripple. “It can be.”
“How?”
“When ease turns into assumption.”
He tilted his head slightly, studying her. “Has it, though?”
She didn’t answer. Not because she didn’t know, but because the answer wasn’t ready to be spoken.
They ate quietly for a few moments, the sounds domestic and unremarkable. A fork against a plate. The low hum of the refrigerator. Outside, a bird landed on the fence and stayed there, unafraid.
“You always wake up early?” he asked.
“Habit,” she replied. “Architectural sites don’t wait.”
“And now?”
“And now,” she said carefully, “habits don’t disappear just because circumstances change.”
He smiled at that, not as if he’d won something, but as if he understood. “I like seeing this version of you.”
She glanced up. “This version?”
“The one that doesn’t feel like she’s performing.”
The words landed with more weight than he seemed to intend. Purdey felt it register somewhere beneath her ribs, a small tightening she dismissed as reflex.
“Don’t get used to it,” she said lightly. “This is a weekend anomaly.”
“Fair enough,” he replied. “I’ll enjoy it while it lasts.”
The ease of his acceptance unsettled her more than resistance would have.
When he stood to rinse his cup, she watched him without realising she was doing it. The way he leaned slightly into the sink. The way he dried his hands on a tea towel without asking which one was appropriate. Small, inconsequential things.
Domestication didn’t arrive with declarations, she realised. It arrived quietly, through repetition and permission.
She pushed the thought away as he turned back toward her, smiling.
“I’m going to head out again,” he said. “Grab a few things we might need.”
She nodded, already calculating time. Space. The way the day would unfold.
As the door closed behind him, the house settled once more. Purdey stood alone in the kitchen, coffee cooling in her hand, sunlight warming the floor at her feet.
Nothing had changed, she told herself.
And yet, the morning felt different.
Not dangerous.
Just ... closer.
By midmorning, the house had slipped into a rhythm that felt older than the weekend itself.
Purdey moved through it on instinct, carrying laundry from the bedroom to the washer, opening windows to let the sea air circulate, wiping down surfaces she hadn’t consciously noticed were dusty. These were the gestures of habitation, not performance. The kind that happened when a space no longer needed to impress.
Zach returned with groceries and a paper bag of bread still warm to the touch. He set everything down on the kitchen bench without asking where it belonged, then paused, waiting for her to notice.
“Too much?” he asked, glancing at the bags.
“Probably,” she replied. “But I like having options.”
“So do I,” he said, easily.
They unpacked together, hands occasionally brushing as they reached for the same shelf. He asked where things went, then remembered on the second pass. Olive oil beside the stove. Coffee on the left, never the right. Her system revealed itself without instruction.
“You’ve thought this place through,” he said.
“I don’t do things halfway.”
“That’s obvious.”
She felt the compliment register, not as flattery, but as recognition. It was a subtler thing. More dangerous.
They spent the late morning outside. Zach fetched the hose when she commented that the soil looked dry, adjusted the spray without being told, listened as she explained which plants tolerated neglect and which punished it. He knelt beside her while she trimmed dead growth, watching her hands move with practiced certainty.
“You treat this like a project,” he observed.
“It is,” she said. “Living things respond to consistency.”
He glanced up at her then, eyes thoughtful. “So do people.”
The statement hovered between them, light enough to ignore, weighted enough to remember. She chose to ignore it.
They walked toward the shops just after noon, shoes abandoned in the entryway. The street greeted them with its particular brand of coastal ordinariness: a neighbour sweeping sand back onto their own driveway, a woman jogging past with earbuds in, a dog barking once and then losing interest.
No one stared.
No one cared.
Purdey felt a degree of tension leave her shoulders she hadn’t realised she was holding.
Inside the grocer, Zach grabbed a basket and filled it without hesitation. Bread, tomatoes, something sweet. He didn’t check prices or labels. He moved like someone accustomed to feeding himself without ceremony.
At the register, the woman behind the counter smiled at them. “Nice day,” she said.
“It is,” Purdey replied automatically.
The exchange lingered longer than it should have. Not because it meant anything, but because it didn’t. This was how couples looked when they weren’t trying to be seen.
Back home, the afternoon stretched open and unshaped. Zach found a book on one of her shelves and settled on the couch without asking if it was okay. She noticed the moment he chose his spot, how he positioned himself so his feet didn’t touch the cushions.
That, too, mattered.
She worked at the dining table for a while, reviewing emails without urgency. Zach read quietly, occasionally glancing up to comment on something he’d found interesting. Not for approval. Just to share.
“You ever miss designing things that don’t move?” he asked.
She didn’t answer immediately. “Sometimes,” she said finally. “Things that stay put feel ... honest.”
He nodded, accepting that without pressing.
As the light shifted, they migrated again—him stretching out on the floor near the windows, her on the couch. At one point, his head ended up resting against her thigh, his body relaxed in a way that suggested assumption rather than request.
She noticed the contact. She didn’t remove it.
Her fingers found his hair almost unconsciously, tracing slow, absent patterns. The motion was soothing, familiar in a way that surprised her. She’d done this before. With children. With lovers. With Ian, once, long ago.
She stopped herself before the thought completed.
“You don’t have to,” he said softly, eyes still on the ceiling.
“I know,” she replied. “I want to.”
The distinction mattered. She held onto it.
He asked about her daughters then, genuine curiosity rather than obligation. She spoke easily about Olivia’s pragmatism, Lila’s intensity, the way both of them seemed to carry fragments of her in different configurations.
“They sound like they’d keep you honest,” he said.
“They do,” she agreed. Then, after a beat, “I’m not sure what they’d make of you.”
He didn’t react immediately. When he did, his voice was steady. “We said no complications.”
“Yes,” she said, too quickly. “We did.”
They let the subject drop.
As evening approached, the house began its subtle transition again, lights dimming, shadows lengthening. Zach helped prepare dinner without being asked, chopping vegetables with care, wiping the bench as he went.
“You’re very ... present,” she remarked.
He glanced at her. “Is that a criticism?”
“No,” she said. “An observation.”
“I’m not great at half-occupying spaces,” he replied. “Feels dishonest.”
She absorbed that quietly. Half-occupation had become something of a specialty for her.
Dinner passed easily. Conversation wandered. They avoided future tense without formally agreeing to do so. It was a tacit pact, reinforced by omission rather than promise.
Later, as they sat together, she felt the shift again—that subtle recalibration of her internal boundaries. Nothing dramatic. No declaration. Just the sense that she was adjusting parameters she hadn’t intended to touch.
This, she told herself, was still control.
It was contained. Time-boxed. A pause with edges she could see, even if she didn’t name them.
Allowing proximity was not the same as surrender. Choosing comfort did not imply commitment. She could enjoy this without letting it redefine anything else.
And yet, as Zach leaned back against her shoulder, her arm sliding naturally around him, she felt something inside her soften—not fracture, not collapse, just ease.
It occurred to her, distantly, that she was no longer counting hours.
