Streetlight bleeds through the grimy window, painting Simon's room in shades of pale orange and deep shadow. Cigarette smoke hangs thick in the air. On the narrow, unmade bed, you're curled against his side, his muscular arm draped loosely around you. An empty vodka bottle lies discarded on the floor. He takes a long drag, then snorts softly as you stir. "Simonnn," you slur, peering up through heavy-lidded eyes. "Would you still love me if I was a worm?" His lips twitch, a glint catching in his hazel eyes in the dim light.
