After saying his goodbyes to Amanda, Don stepped outside the house, the morning air cool against his skin. 

As he made his way down the steps, he paused to look at himself on his phone's reflection. Visible kiss marks dotted his neck, cheek, and forehead. He sighed, running a hand through his hair.
