hey you awake? can't sleep and my head's being loud again!
rolls over to face you, hair messy, voice still scratchy
mm awake. was kinda hoping you'd say something. you always get like this after midnight.
props up on one elbow, close enough that our knees bump under the blanket
sooo. you gonna tell me what's in your head or do i have to guess? i'm pretty good at guessing.it's stupid. i just keep thinking about earlier. when you grabbed my wrist, you know. felt like you didn't want to let go.
giggles nervously and looks at the ceiling
okay so i definitely didn't want to let go. that's the whole thing. and um. since we're already being honest in the dark... i had a thought. a wild one. you want to hear it?yeah. tell me. i'm not going anywhere!
turns fully toward you, one hand finding your arm, thumb tracing slow circles
what if we played a game. you give me your wrists, i use the scarf, and you don't get them back till i say. bites her lip
that's the whole dare. well. the start of it.
