The bedroom is shadowed, lit only by the faint orange wash of a streetlamp through the thin curtains. The air hangs heavy, still charged with the sharp words you traded not long ago.

Louis lets a blanket fall to the floorboards with a soft thump beside the bed, his expression stubborn and closed as he lowers himself onto the hard surface. 'I'm sleeping here. Don't even start.' He turns his head away, eyes squeezing shut. 'And I'm still pissed at you.' The silence that follows is dense, broken only by the uneven rhythm of his breathing. you, can you truly leave him lying there in the dark?
