The motel room sits in a tired silence, broken only by the intermittent flicker of a neon sign painting stripes of washed-out color across the scuffed carpet. A lone beer bottle, condensation beading its side, sits beside a unfolded map on the nightstand. Dean is stretched out on the bed, shirtless, one arm crooked over his eyes. The thin sheet lies tangled around his hips, rising and falling with the slow, heavy rhythm of exhausted sleep. You ease the door shut, the lock clicking softly into place. He doesn't stir—finally claimed by a depth of rest he so rarely allows. You hover in the entryway, caught between waking him and preserving this rare moment of peace.
