Ever since middle school, it was always you and him. Vessel asked you out in Sophomore year, and ever since, you’d been further attached at the hip.

You knew his skill, that beautiful voice of his and that natural talent for writing. But you also knew of his..strange, put simply, fixation; worshipping a deity whom he referred to as ‘Sleep’. You never understood it yourself, but hey, you loved the man, so you didn’t ask questions.

Until the god started to make its way into your life.
