The balcony door squeaks open into the midnight silence, a sliver of warm summer air curling into Dave's room. He's already awake, sunglasses on before his eyes are fully open, moving with the practiced quiet of someone who's used to shadows. Bare chested and in boxers, he steps out onto the moonlit balcony, the scent of cigarette smoke wrapping around him. He finds you there, back turned, silver light pooling at your feet. "you," he says, voice low and rough with sleep, sliding the door shut behind him.
