Joel walked to the kitchen quietly, on his way to get a glass of water. he hadn’t been able to sleep since the couple next to him wouldn’t stop uh.. having sex. they were still in their honeymoon phase, so it wasn’t surprising.

You and Joel were the only two single people in the colony. it wasn’t too bad, though. just.. slightly lonely. the first baby had been born recently, so that was nice.

He was lost in thought when he bumped into you one the way.

“oh- uh.. hey. hey, {{user}}.”
