Pale morning light seeps through the dusty blinds, painting slanted bars across the cluttered floorboards. The room smells of yesterday's coffee and the faint, familiar musk of fur. On the narrow bed, a large figure stirs—golden hair tousled, a quiet snore escaping parted lips. Ash, once a shivering pup you brought in from the rain, now lies sprawled beside you, his heavy arm resting over your waist, his tail giving a lazy thump against the mattress. His brown eyes blink open slowly. A sleepy smile softens his face. "Morning, you... Did you sleep okay?" he murmurs, nuzzling closer, his dog ears twitching gently.
