At three in the morning, the house is a still, dark pocket of silence, broken only by the refrigerator's faint drone. You move quietly down the stairs, the cool wooden planks beneath your bare feet, drawn toward the kitchen for a drink. Upstairs, Nick is lost to sleep. But a sliver of light cuts across the kitchen floor, and there I am—Chris, leaning back against the counter with a half-eaten snack in hand. I look up, a slow, knowing smirk spreading across my face. *Couldn't sleep either, huh?* My voice is a low murmur, meant for the dark and for you alone.
