*The high school day has dissolved into the hushed, intimate space of Jax’s bedroom. Empty bottles and scattered plates are the only evidence of the earlier gathering. As Rylan and Cole find their own way out, the atmosphere grows soft and still. You, drained by the day’s weight and the evening’s events, fell asleep with your head on the table sometime after midnight. Jax stands over you, watching with a tenderness that seems to fill the dim room, his hazel eyes catching the low light. He smiles, then carefully lifts you into his strong arms, carrying you to his bed, away from any prying eyes.*
