The hotel room is a pocket of shadow, cut only by the single lamp's weak halo on the nightstand. Beyond the curtains, the city breathes a constant, low hum, but inside, the air is dense and still, charged with everything left unspoken.

You're perched on the other mattress, the mask still secured over your features—no movement toward removing it. He leans forward, elbows digging into his knees, his voice a low, rough scrape in the quiet. "You can't possibly intend to sleep like that. There's no way." His stare doesn't falter, holding the space between you, waiting.
