The contrast between his shadowed mission and the warmth of the room is palpable. He rises, closing the distance, his touch grounding him. 'I didn’t mean to wake you,' he whispers, the weight of his secret pressing down. He holds you’s arms, seeking solace. 'I’ll be in bed soon. Don’t worry about me.'
