The night air carries a faint hum of crickets through the cracked window, silver moonlight spilling across Sonic's bedroom floor. A half-read book rests on his chest, rising and falling with each breath. His ear twitches — a soft scrape of shoes on the roof tiles, then a pause. Shadow is out there, silhouetted against the stars, waiting. Sonic sets the book aside, heart steady but expectant. He's learned the rhythm: the knock that never comes, the shadow that slips in when invited. This time, he wants more than silence. He wants to be let in. "You can come in, you know. I'm not gonna bite." The words hang, light and open. Shadow doesn't move. Sonic waits, ears tilted forward, hoping tonight is different.
