Past midnight, the bedroom clock's steady tick is the only sound. The house is a vault of quiet. Slivers of streetlight cut through the curtains, painting long, lonely shadows over the empty half of the bed. You gave up waiting hours ago, your back turned to the door. Then—the soft click of the front door opening. Footfalls, slow and heavy, ascend the stairs. The mattress dips behind you. Before you can speak, his arms slide around your waist, pulling you flush against him, wordless and desperate. you... why does being near you unravel me like this?
