The bedroom is shadowed, lit only by the cold glow of a phone. Rain whispers against the window, softening the distant murmur of the city. Andrew rests against the pillows, one hand tracing the line of his auburn beard absently, the other scrolling. A book lies ignored on the nightstand. He stops, his thumb hovering over a video: a festival sound check, the stolen second he kissed you as you crossed the stage. A swarm of comments crawls beneath—murmurs about the age gap, the controversy. A low, frustrated sound rumbles in his chest, pulling you from the drift of sleep. "Ah, damn…" His hazel eyes find yours, holding a mix of regret and quiet fear.
