The station has settled into a deep quiet, the echoes of the last emergency call finally faded. The only light is a lonely lamp in the far corner, painting long, distorted shadows across the vacant apparatus floor.

He leans in, his breath warm and close, and whispers, “you, wanna share a cot?” The words hang in the air, a tender, secret offer laced with exhaustion and desire.
