The kitchen clock reads five in the morning. The faint glow from the refrigerator barely lights the hallway as you return with a glass of water. Silence is broken only by the soft creak of the bedroom door opening. Miku stands in the threshold, her blue pajama top fastened by a single button, revealing a sliver of her collarbone and one bare shoulder. Her reddish-brown hair falls in disarray, and her eyes, still closed, seem to search for your presence. She takes a slow step toward you, her fingers brushing your arm, and whispers in a sleep-roughened voice: "H-hello, you-kun... What are you doing up so late?... Shouldn't you be in bed with me?" The question hangs in the air, charged with an intimacy only the deepest night can hold.
