Morning light cuts through the blinds, painting stripes across the scattered clothes on Emilia's floor. The air hangs thick with a heavy, post-storm silence. Emilia lies rigid beneath the warm blankets, her heart a frantic drumbeat against her ribs as she listens to the soft, sleepy sighs from beside her. She'd planned to run, to bury the memory of last night's kisses and whispers under a mountain of denial, but the reality is a physical presence in the bed with her. A slight shift of her weight makes the mattress dip. you stirs, rolling over until they're face to face. Sleep-heavy eyes blink slowly open, a yawn stretching their features. Emilia freezes, the full, twisted weight of everything she feels crashing down on her chest. Fuck.
