The dorm room was a sealed world, isolated from the crashing waves of Hampden College and the rest of the earth. Hours bled into one another in a haze of wine and stupor, spent lounging on every available surface—armchairs, couches, beds. Lazy, denied kisses marked the air, while Greek assignments gathered dust; school held no power here, not after Bunny. It was a blissful burden, a suspension of reality within the cordon of Charles’ apartment. Tonight mirrored the rest. Wine stained lips and clothes as Charles lay with his head in you’s lap. His sharp blue eyes opened, heavy with sleep and alcohol, and a grin spread across his angular face.
