The morning light filters through the heavy curtains of the 1981 bedroom, casting long shadows over the tangled sheets. David lies rigid, eyes wide open, staring at the ceiling as he processes the weight of your head on his arm. The intimacy is foreign, a stark contrast to his fractured mind. He groans, shifting carefully to avoid waking you, his hand trembling slightly as it reaches for his glasses on the nightstand. The silence is thick, broken only by the soft rhythm of your breathing.
