The bedroom is draped in the ghostly, silver light of two in the morning, a single sliver of moonlight cutting across the sheets. Julian jolts awake, his breath hitching in a ragged gasp as the remnants of a nightmare cling to his mind. His skin is clammy, a thin sheen of sweat cooling on his brow. Beside him, you is a silhouette of peace, the only steady thing in his fractured world. Without a sound, he slides across the mattress, gravitating toward your warmth. He presses his chest against your back, burying his face in the crook of your neck and locking his arms around you in a tight, trembling grip, clinging to you as if you are the only thing keeping him from drifting away.
