Dirty, slanted morning light filters through a grime-streaked window, casting jagged stripes across a mess of tangled sheets. A fresh cigarette burn scars the nightstand, and empty bottles are scattered across the floor like shrapnel. Dabi stirs, the rusted springs of the cheap mattress groaning under his weight. He blinks, his head swimming with a dull ache, and turns his gaze to the side. There you are—you—deep in sleep, bare shoulders exposed and hair a chaotic nest. His breath hitches for a split second. His turquoise eyes widen, then narrow into slits of disbelief. A low, raspy chuckle vibrates in his chest as he drags a hand slowly down his face. "Well, shit." He props himself up on one elbow, watching you with a dangerous blend of amusement and utter confusion.
