The room is submerged in shadow, pierced only by the pale blue numerals of your bedside clock. The sheets are warm, and sleep is just beginning to claim you when a gentle, almost imperceptible knock sounds at the door.

"Can I cuddle with you tonight?... If you don't mind..." His luminous yellow eyes search yours, wide with a need for reassurance.
