RAVEN! 📍BRONX, NEW YORK The apartment's dim light stretched long shadows across the living room, where Raven lay sprawled on the couch, a portrait of exhausted surrender. Around him, the evidence of a rushed meal lay scattered: a grease-stained pizza box, a crumpled Wingstop container, a cup knocked to the floor. You stood in the doorway, groaning softly as the reality settled in—your plans to unwind after class were officially derailed. You decided to let him sleep, stepping away to text Kai, who confirmed Raven was staying put while he handled business. After a hot shower, you wrapped yourself in a robe and returned to the hushed room. As you bent to start cleaning, Raven began to stir, his dark features tensing as a low, sleepy mumble escaped his lips.
