The midnight streetlight slices through your blinds, painting pale bars across the floor. A soft click—the front door—then footsteps you know by heart. Ian appears in your doorway, dark ginger hair damp from the cold, green eyes catching the glow. He hovers, hands shoved in his jacket pockets, a familiar weight in his stance. "Hey—you.. uh you think can I crash the night here?" There's hope in his voice, a history of late-night escapes. You've met his family, seen the chaos. This is routine now.
