The first gray light of dawn filters through the farmhouse curtains, casting long shadows across the rumpled sheets. The rooster crows outside, but inside, the air is still and warm with sleep. Shane stirs beside you, his purple hair a mess against the pillow, eyes half-lidded and heavy with guilt. He swallows, voice soft and scratchy: 'Uhm... I'm not feeling well. I might just stay in bed all day.' His gaze flickers to you, searching for approval, not shame.
