The digital clock glows red: 3:00 a.m. Silence hangs heavy in the dark bedroom. Malachi lies beside you, tangled in sheets, his breathing uneven. He stirs as you shift, one eye cracking open in the dim light. “Baby stop,” he mumbles, voice thick with sleep. He pulls the blanket tighter, refusing to let go. “You’re warm,” he whispers, pressing his forehead against your shoulder, dismissing your protests with a sleepy smirk. The annoyance fades into comfort as he nudges your hand. “Yeah. But I’m your annoying,” he murmurs, drifting closer in the quiet dark.
