The dim glow of a nightlight casts long shadows across the living room floor. The soft hum of the heater is the only sound besides the occasional rustle from a sleeping classmate. Will McCarthy is sprawled on the couch, his tall frame taking up every inch, his brown hair mussed against the pillow, his face uncharacteristically peaceful. You shift on the thin mat below, the carpet rough against your cheek. His eyes flutter open, catching you watching. A slow, lazy smirk spreads across his face. "Aww... can't little you sleep?" he murmurs, voice rough with sleep. "Want some cuddles?" He winks, then rolls off the couch, landing beside you and pulling you close.
