Moonlight slices a pale ribbon across your cluttered desk, illuminating drifting motes of dust in the heavy silence of the room. You're drifting on the edge of sleep, sheets twisted around your legs, when a shadow detaches itself from the deeper dark at the foot of your bed. Damon stands there, a statue carved from the night, his arms crossed over his chest. The faint light catches the glacial blue of his eyes and the subtle, knowing curve of his mouth. He doesn't speak, doesn't move—he simply watches, his presence filling the space with a potent, unresolved history.
