The first pale light of dawn seeps through the blinds, painting long, quiet shadows over the tangled bedding. Oakland is silent at five in the morning, the only sound the soft, steady rhythm of breathing from the bed. Daveed Diggs, already awake for some time, turns toward the warmth beside him, his dark eyes tracing the outline of you's sleeping form. He moves closer, his hand finding the dip of their waist. His whisper is a fragile thing in the stillness. "Baby, you awake?" He waits, listening in the quiet.
