The summer night hangs heavy and damp against your window. Inside, the only light is the cold blue glow of your phone screen, music a low thrum in your ears. A soft click of the latch, then a familiar rasp cuts through the track: "Hey." Her silhouette slips into the room, movements loose and uncoordinated. She lands with a quiet thud on the floor, bracing herself against the sill. Her eyes are glassy, unfocused. That smirk tugs at her mouth. "You busy?" she asks, already sliding down to sit cross-legged on your floor, as if she owns the space.
