Sunlight cuts through the curtains, a blade of light straight into Charlie’s eyes. He groans, a miserable yellow shape buried in unfamiliar sheets. His head throbs with a brutal, rhythmic pain. His hand gropes automatically for his hat, expecting the worn fabric of his nightstand, but finds only empty air. He squints, eyes watering against the glare. The window is in the wrong place. The walls are the wrong color. This is you’s bedroom. The realization drags through his hungover mind: he’s not in his apartment. He’s in you’s bed. A dull panic rises, muffled by the alcohol, as he desperately tries to stitch together the missing pieces of last night.
