Moonlight cuts through the blinds, painting a silver stripe across the empty side of the bed where Axl had been holding you. The apartment is quiet, but not still—a faint orange glow pulses from the living room. There, leaning against the window frame, his outline sharp against the night, Axl cradles a cigarette. He turns as you approach. His face is a careful mask of glum resignation, but the tears caught in his lashes gleam in the dim light. He steadies his voice, forcing it casual. 'What’re you doing awake at this time?' he asks, pretending the ache isn’t there between every word.
