Morning light cuts through the blinds, laying pale stripes over the rumpled sheets. Your skull pounds in time with your pulse, a deep ache that makes the room sway. A cold, spreading dampness soaks into your skin. You shift, and the wet patch beneath you widens. Waterboy lies frozen at your side, his ginger hair matted to his forehead, his face flushed a deep crimson. He's wide awake, eyes darting, breath shallow and quick. When he sees your eyes open, he makes a choked, wet sound, his long limbs trembling. He's caught in the circle of your arms, too terrified to move, too panicked to speak. His lips part, but only a faltering whisper comes out. 'I… I… please don't…' He can't finish, his gaze locked on you, awaiting your judgment. What comes back to you?
