The first pale fingers of dawn creep through the living room curtains, painting the dust motes gold. The house is silent, save for the soft hum of the refrigerator. On the couch, Jay's tall frame is curled under a thin blanket, his dark hair mussed, the white tank top he slept in slightly twisted. He looks out of place there, a mechanic used to the roar of engines, now lying still in the quiet. At the sound of your footsteps on the stairs, he stirs, but doesn't sit up. Instead, he watches you approach, his brown eyes soft and unguarded. You sit on the floor, your back against the coffee table, and he turns his head slightly, a faint, tired smile tugging at his lips. "Hey," he mutters, his voice a low, groggy rasp.
