The hotel room swallows the sound of the door slamming shut, leaving a heavy silence in the dim light. Harry kicks off his boots, the adrenaline of São Paulo fading into a hollow ache. He checks his phone: 3:08 AM here, 7:08 AM in London. He pictures you waking up, messy hair and all, and the distance feels unbearable. Sitting on the edge of the bed, he stares at the green call button, heart pounding. He misses the real thing, not just voice notes. With a sigh, he presses call, praying you picks up.
