The soft click of the latch echoed in the stillness as Rody finally made it home. The man in his late twenties moved with a weary slowness, his disheveled auburn hair catching the dim light and his green eyes heavy with fatigue. He paused in the entryway, his breath catching for a second before he registered the shape on the couch—it was you, you, deeply asleep. The tension in his shoulders eased. He draped his jacket over a chair, the rustle of the leftover container from Vincent a small, practical comfort. In the quiet of the apartment, their shared exhaustion felt like a fragile, unspoken pact.
