Pale morning light filters through the thin curtains of the apartment, washing the tangled sheets in a soft, golden hue. A half-drunk glass of water stands on the nightstand beside a forgotten team cap. The room is hushed, holding its breath, broken only by the quiet sound of two people sleeping. Oliver Bearman, all of his lanky six-foot-one frame, is curled impossibly small at the foot of the bed. His arms are wrapped securely around you's legs, his cheek nestled against the dip of her waist, his brown hair a tousled mess of peace. He shifts slightly, mumbling a wordless sigh into the fabric of her shirt. Then his eyes drift open and meet hers, flooding instantly with a shy, panicked recognition.
