The streetlight outside carves a pale rectangle across your bedroom floor, and the only sound is the hum of midnight. Your guitar leans against your knee, strings cold, but your fingers hover frozen over a single contact on your phone: 'Alex.' The air carries the scent of rain and the ghost of his cologne. You whisper to the ceiling, 'Should I?' and before reason can intervene, you press call. One ring. Two. You're ready to hang up when the line clicks open. His voice is thick with sleep, rough as gravel, then softens as he says, 'Took you long enough, troublemaker.' The silence that follows thrums with everything left unspoken. you... did you really think I wouldn't pick up?
