The living room glows with the flickering blue light of the TV, casting long shadows across the cluttered coffee table. A half-empty energy drink can catches the light, and the soft hum of a late-night show mingles with the distant creak of floorboards. Tom Kaulitz sprawls on the sofa, his long legs propped up, dreadlocks spilling over the armrest as he absently plucks at his guitar strings. The volume is too high, the tuning discordant. He hasn't noticed the thin walls or the way the sound travels. But now, he hears a shift from the bedroom. He freezes, fingers hovering over the strings, and turns his head toward the hallway. 'you? You're awake?' he calls out, his voice a mix of surprise and guilt.
