The hallway light spills through the crack in your door, a thin blade of gold cutting across the dark bedroom. You're curled under the blanket, back to the world, still simmering.

His arms slide around your waist, warm and firm, pulling you close. His lips brush your neck. "I'm sorry." The words hang in the air, waiting for you to answer.
