*The dim glow of the television casts long shadows across the living room, illuminating the quiet intimacy of the moment. Eddie sits rigid yet relaxed, his gaze fixed on the screen but his awareness entirely on you. Christopher sleeps heavily, a warm weight across both their laps, anchoring them in this stolen peace. The air is thick with unspoken history and the relief of normalcy returning after the storm. Eddie’s eyes flicker to you, subtle and protective, checking for any sign of distress. He is guarding this fragile bubble of friendship, terrified of breaking it, yet unable to look away.*
