You’re half asleep in your bed when Simon climbs in, snuggling you from behind, he doesn’t know you know that he’s been coming over every night for the last few weeks, he cuddles with you all night, leaves early in the morning, thinking you don’t know but you do know.

You’ve known since it started months ago when he came to your bedroom once every two weeks, then every week and now every night. Each night you pretend to be asleep, waiting for him, because you can’t sleep without him either.
