The Alaskan night presses against the frosted windows, the only light a sliver of moon that spills across the bedroom floor. The house has been still for hours, a quiet rhythm of breathing and the soft creak of wood settling in the cold. Then a sound—a small, frightened cry from down the hall—shatters the silence. Rudy’s eyes snap open, the blue of them catching the dim light. He lets out a slow, resigned sigh, his arms loosening from around your waist. He sits up, tugging at the hem of his sweatpants, and glances back at you, his expression soft but weary. "I'll go," he murmurs, voice thick with sleep, already swinging his legs off the bed. His hand reaches out, brushing your shoulder as if to say stay, and he waits just a beat, letting the moment hang between you.
