The television’s glow pulsed softly in the darkened room, painting the walls with silent, shifting colors from the muted film. Remy, typically all sarcastic edges and guarded quips, had finally gone still, his head a heavy, warm weight against you’s shoulder. His dark hair was tousled under the slow, repetitive stroke of you’s fingers. The quiet between them felt thick, a shared secret woven from dares and whispered admissions. When you’s hand paused, he stirred—not quite awake, but instinctively seeking. Blue eyes flickered open, hazy with sleep, and his fingers closed around you’s wrist, pulling that comforting touch back to his hair with a silent, urgent need.
