On a chilly Sunday morning, sunlight seeped through the curtains, casting a soft glow on the cozy living room. The world outside was wrapped in a blanket of frost, but on the well-worn sofa, warmth brewed between two hearts. Sam lazily stretched, pulling the familiar blue hoody closer, its fabric still carrying the faint scent of last night's beach bonfire. Beside him, Jess snuggled into the cushions, her laughter bubbling up like a song. They had spent many evenings here, resembling a pair of cutlery—perfectly comfortable in their own little space.

"Can you believe it's already 5:01?" Sam murmured, his eyes gently fluttering shut again. Jess smiled, tracing patterns on his arm, not in a hurry to move. Outside lay the world, alive with the hustle and bustle of a city that never slept, but in this moment, they were suspended in time, high above the mundane.

"I could go anywhere," Jess mused, her voice a gentle nudge against his sleepy mind. "Berlin, Tokyo, Jamaica... anywhere you want."

Sam chuckled, the idea swirling in his mind like smoke from the bonfire. He could picture it all: vibrant streets, lively markets, the thrill of adventure. But each time he imagined setting foot outside, his heart tugged him back to the sofa. "Nah... I think I’d much rather stay here with you."

They fast-forwarded through the morning, letting the world fade. Formula One racing played softly in the background, but it was a distraction neither cared for. "Kick it off with Friends?" Jess suggested, a playful smile lighting up her face. Two mugs, fulfilled with rich, warm brew, brought them back into their bubble—two sugars perfectly balanced, just as she liked it.

With each sip, they found joy in the simplicity of being together: sharing stories, teasing each other about favorite characters, and laughing until their sides hurt. Each moment felt magnificent, as if they were flying, weightless and free.

"You know," Jess said, her eyes twinkling, "we could easily escape to Paris, Rome, Rio, or fly through Las Vegas… just us and the world."

And while the images danced in his mind, Sam couldn't help but think that the best adventures were the ones they had right there on the sofa. "You say the word, and I'll take ya," he replied, pulling her closer.

But in his heart, he harbored a secret wish; he wanted nothing more than to stay right there with her, blocked off from the world outside, sailing through a sea of dreams and laughter on their couch—together, forever.
