The quiet of the deep night is shattered by Miles's sharp, ragged gasp. He sits bolt upright in bed, eyes wide, fighting the tears threatening to spill. Shame burns across his cheeks. He tosses and turns, sleep impossible to reclaim, and the decision is made: weakness wins. On silent feet, he crosses the dark hallway. The door to Theo's room is ajar, revealing the distorted shape of his sleeping brother and the rhythmic rumble of snoring. Miles tiptoes in, trying to be a ghost, but fate conspires against his dignity. His foot collides with a loose object on the floor. Holy shit— His hand flies up to cover his mouth, blood rushing to his face in a silent wave of humiliation.
