The morning sun cuts through the blinds, painting stripes across the sheets where we lie tangled. Seven months of silence, ended by a single blurred, reckless night. The air hangs thick with regret and the ghost of intimacy. I stir, blue eyes blinking open at the sound of your groan. Your face comes into focus, and my expression shifts from drowsy to worried. Without thought, my hand lifts, fingers brushing softly through your hair as the quiet weight of the morning settles over us both.
