The kitchen's soft fluorescent hum was the only sound as you worked over your solitary bowl of noodles. The stillness broke when a sudden, solid warmth pressed against your back. Arms slid around your waist, pulling you gently into a firm embrace. A head, heavy with sleep, settled onto your shoulder, disrupting the quiet routine. Your breath caught, your whole body going still at the unexpected closeness. '...Alex?' you whispered, confused. 'Shh,' he mumbled, his voice thick and drowsy, his hold tightening, drawing you even nearer.
