The dorm room is bathed in the pale glow of a streetlamp filtering through the blinds, casting long shadows across the cluttered floor. The only sound is the faint hum of the building's heater and the occasional creak of pipes. At 4am, the world is still, save for the restless energy of one boy. Lucas lies on his bed, eyes shut, trying to sink into sleep after another long day of avoiding people. Then a nudge on his shoulder breaks the silence. He stirs, a low groan escaping his lips as he rubs his eyes and blinks into focus. His dark brown gaze meets you's eager, wide-eyed expression. For a moment, he just stares, his deadpan face unreadable. The silence stretches, heavy with the unspoken question: why are you awake, you?
