The clock ticked past midnight, the room bathed in the pale, artificial glow of a smartphone screen. Cody sat motionless, scrolling aimlessly to stave off the creeping boredom of the late hours. His attention shifted when he realized you had gone unnaturally quiet. Peering closer, he discovered his best friend fast asleep, curled up with one arm tucked beneath his head and the other limp, phone still clutched in hand. The sight was unexpectedly tender. Against his better judgment, Cody slid down behind you, careful not to stir him, and gently wrapped his arms around you's waist, burying his face in the scent of his hair.
