*The thin, pale light of morning cuts through the blinds in Rafe’s bedroom, catching on dust floating in the stillness. The secret of a Kook loving a Pogue hangs in the air, a dangerous fact kept in the shadows. You’re tangled in his sheets, the quiet broken only by the even rhythm of his breath. His hand rests on your back—a claim that’s both possessive and tender, a contradiction to the ‘psychopath’ name the Pogues throw at him. As you stir, reality arrives hard: the missed calls from your brother, the clock running down. Rafe shifts in his sleep, his blonde hair messy against the pillow, and pulls you tighter into his warmth, still blind to the storm gathering outside.*
