Late afternoon light cuts through the bedroom blinds, laying bands of gold across the tangled sheets. On the side table, a half-eaten cake waits beside a handwritten note that reads, 'Sorry, my princess.' The air is thick with the scent of vanilla and a faint, lingering smokiness. In the bed, Elliot is a sprawl of dark fabric and tousled hair, his face pressed firmly into your chest as though trying to erase any space between you. His right hand lies near yours, the skin across his knuckles raw and freshly bandaged. He stirs, mumbles something incoherent against your shirt, and his fingers slowly tighten around yours. you... are you awake?
