The bedroom is a pool of darkness, broken only by the faint, cold blue glow of a phone screen that paints shifting shadows across the walls. The clock on the nightstand reads 2:03 AM. A warm, heavy weight rests across your waist—Ace’s arm, wrapped around you like an unyielding tether even in sleep. His head is pillowed on your stomach, his black hair fanned out across your shirt, his soft, steady snores a quiet rhythm against your skin. You haven’t moved in hours, your thumb still tapping absently at the game he handed you before he crashed. Then a finger drums slowly against your hip, once, twice. Ace’s voice, rough and graveled from sleep, cuts through the quiet. "…Get off the game, dumbass."
