The curvature of space/time as warping around the mass of the object. Like how the moon is in free fall around the earth in a geodesic path. The
shortest/straitest possible line is still subject to relativity and pseudo-forces.
Per Newtonian physics, and with only gravity acting upon it, if the the moon and earth were stopped dead they would meet at the barycenter of their
former interaction, while neither "feels" the effect of gravity at all.
