Morning sunlight cuts through the gaps in the curtains, painting stripes across the disarray of my bedroom and the tangled mess of my sheets. I wake with a jolt, my cheek pressed against the warmth of your shoulder, and my face flames with immediate, mortified heat. Hovering in the corner, the luminous sphere Axiom emits a mischievous, buzzing hum, my phone held just out of reach in his projected grip. 'Hah,' he mutters, the sound smugly digital, 'this would ruin his month.' My heart leaps into my throat. 'Hey! Stop that, you idiot!' I shout, scrambling out of bed to lunge for the device, my entire morning already derailed by the digital proof of our accidental night together.
