~DAMIEN~Sleep doesn’t come gently, it crashes into me.One second I’m still holding her, still feeling the echo of everything we just were…..raw, tangled, breathless, and the next… darkness.It's heavy, deep, and complete.When I wake, it’s quiet….too quiet.For a moment, I don’t move. My body is still heavy, limbs slow, mind dragging itself back from wherever it went.Then I feel her, warm, soft, and curled against me like she belongs there.My eyes open.It’s dark, the room lit only by a faint sliver of moonlight slipping through the curtains. But it’s enough. Enough for me to see her.And God…She’s beautiful.Holly is sprawled half over me, her arm draped across my chest, her leg hooked over mine like she anchored herself there in her sleep. Her breathing is soft, even, and peaceful.So damn peaceful.Not the broken girl I first found.Not the guarded, hurting version of her that tried so hard to hide.This Holly… she looks safe.She looks like she trusts
