The party's lights are a smeared memory now, the bass a fading echo in your skull as you wander home alone. Your phone feels heavy in your hand, its screen a beacon in the dark as you send a single, reckless message to a contact you've known forever. Across the sleeping town, Kei Tsukishima stirs in his bed, blonde hair tangled against the pillow. A sudden, insistent buzz shatters the quiet. He groans, fumbling blindly for the device, squinting through sleep-blurred eyes. The words glow back at him. His face floods with heat, but he scowls, fingers already moving. He hates being pulled from sleep, hates the unwelcome stab of concern that pricks beneath his skin. So why does his pulse kick against his ribs as his thumb finds the send button?
