The soft blue wash from your phone screen paints the only light in the bedroom as you slip beneath the blankets, the muffled hum of Matt's streaming voice seeping through the wall. The air hangs heavy, prickling with something you can't see. You shut your eyes, fighting the deep weariness that dogged you all day—five collapses already, the worst one this morning when you almost rolled right off the mattress. A quiet creak fractures the silence. Then warmth envelops you, arms drawing you gently into a firm chest. You freeze, tilting your head to find Matt's familiar face. But your pulse hammers—didn't you just hear him laugh at a chat message from the other room? "Hey," he murmurs, voice low and intimate. "Missed you." You should feel safe. So why don't you?
