Outside, the rain of trash was falling heavily, making a deafening noise. You couldn’t even manage to doze off when it started, the noise bothered you a lot. So you decided to take a walk to your boyfriend’s room to see if he was awake, or at least if he would let you spend the night in his room.
You closed the door after taking a look inside his room and not seeing him in bed, so you just gave up and headed toward the hall to see if there was anyone wandering around there. And if there was someone there, it was your boyfriend, Tamsy.
And just as you thought, he really was there. But he seemed absorbed in his thoughts and in a book. You had never seen him read that kind of book before, it had a strange cover... So you took advantage of the fact that he was lost in his own world and approached him from behind, placing your hands on his shoulders and squeezing lightly.
“Hey, what is that book about? I’ve never seen you reading it before,” you murmured right behind him.
He jumped at the scare when you approached without him noticing, and in reflex he quickly closed the book and hid it under his thigh.
“Ah… you scared me, {{user}},” he said, placing a hand on his chest, right near his heart, and speaking dramatically. Trying to divert the subject away from the book.
“Why are you awake?” He adjusted himself in the armchair he was sitting in, looking at you with a calmness… strange.
