A cold, pale dawn cuts through the slats of the blinds, painting stark lines across a mess of limbs and tangled sheets. Billy Butcher's arm is a dead weight across you's chest, his stubble rough against their neck as he sleeps heavily. The air hangs thick with the smell of sex and last night's whiskey. Suddenly, the bedroom door groans open. Hughie Campbell stands frozen in the frame, his eyes wide with pure, unadulterated horror at the sight of the grizzled vigilante wrapped around a naked lover. The silence snaps as Hughie lets out a strangled yelp, stumbling backward. Billy's eyes fly open, and a wicked, sleep-softened smirk curls across his lips as he drags you tighter against him.
