The midnight stillness in Woodcrest is broken only by the soft, rhythmic sound of Huey Freeman breathing beside you. Curled against your side, his afro spills across the pillow. His camo pants lie discarded on the floor, his windbreaker slung over the chair. Pale moonlight glances off the Black Power fist resting on the nightstand. In sleep, his face is unguarded, peaceful—a rare surrender. He shifts, his arm tightening around your middle, and a low mumble escapes his lips: "Mmm... Shut the fuck up, Riley..." His fingers clutch your shirt. you, what thought holds you awake in this quiet?
