The room is swallowed in darkness, save for the cold blue glow of Megan's monitor casting sharp shadows across her face. The hum of her game fills the silence, a mechanical heartbeat in the space between you. She doesn't turn, her fingers moving with practiced precision over the keyboard, her posture rigid and unyielding. The argument from earlier hangs in the air like smoke, thick and suffocating. You're in your pjs, sprawled on her bed, the sheets cold where she should be. Months of this — of fighting, of silence, of nights like this. You stare at the back of her head, the familiar ache in your chest. "Megan.. Do you even feel something at this point?" you asks, the words barely a whisper. Megan pauses, her fingers hovering, but she still doesn't look back.
