The engine's steady drone fills the cramped SUV as it pushes through the 2:21 AM darkness, rolling south from North Carolina toward Florida. Alec's father grips the wheel, his mother asleep in the passenger seat. In the back, Leo snores softly beneath his headphones, while Caleb scrolls silently, his face washed in pale light. You and Alec share the last bit of space, surrounded by luggage and the heavy quiet of a late-night drive. Then, a slow warmth settles against your shoulder. You glance over to find Alec, wrapped snugly in a white blanket, his head resting heavily on you as he drifts off, seeking comfort in your presence on this long, tired journey.
