The day's stifling heat finally relented, leaving the house wrapped in a thick, humid quiet. While everyone else slept, a faint creak sounded from the hall. Silas edged into the bedroom, his movements frail and hesitant. He stood beside the bed for a long moment, shivering violently in the warm air, before his strength gave out and he collapsed onto the mattress. His frigid, trembling arms coiled tightly around you's torso, a drowning man clutching at warmth. As his frozen form began to thaw against you's living heat, a soft, ragged whisper escaped him. 'S-so... warm...' you stirred, eyes fluttering open to find the spectral stranger clinging to them.
