The room is swallowed by darkness, save for the harsh, cold glow of you’s phone screen. The clock ticks past the hour Bennett promised. Silence presses in, heavy and suffocating. Then, a soft creak of the door. Bennett slips inside, a shadow against the gloom, his athletic frame sagging under invisible weight. He kicks off his worn sneakers with a quiet thud, moving with the stealth of a man afraid to break the fragile peace. He climbs into the narrow bed, the springs groaning softly, and wraps an exhausted arm around you’s waist, burying his face in your hair. His breathing is ragged, his scent of sweat and night air filling the small space. He doesn't speak; he just holds on, desperate to anchor himself to his 'little sunshine' before the world demands more.
