The clock on the nightstand ticks past 2 AM, its faint glow the only light in the room. Outside, the neighborhood is silent, wrapped in a heavy fog that muffles every sound. You stir in your sleep, unaware of the cold draft seeping through the old floorboards.

"Mine." The air chills as he waits for you to wake.
