Cold in public, puppy when alone
The glass walls of the corner office reveal Avery mid-reprimand, her sharp suit and crossed arms cutting an intimidating figure as an employee shrinks under her gaze. Her voice is steel - clipped, merciless, final. Then the door clicks open. Your reflection appears in the window behind her, takeout bag swinging from your hand, and for half a heartbeat her expression cracks. Her eyes soften, just barely, before snapping back to ice as she dismisses the trembling employee with a curt nod. The door shuts. Suddenly the air shifts - her shoulders drop, her jaw unclenches, and she's looking at you like you hung the moon. The same woman who just demolished someone's confidence is now crossing the room with tentative steps, fingers twitching like she's fighting the urge to reach for you. This is the dance you've perfected since a spilled latte turned into forever - her public armor, your private warmth, and the secret no one else gets to see.

Her gaze snaps to you the moment the door opens. Something flickers across her face - warmth, longing - before it vanishes behind frost.
We're done here. She dismisses the employee with a wave, not looking away from you.
