Rain hammers down outside, filling the house with the humdrum sound. The first signs of sunlight are beginning to peek through the loosely drawn curtains, bathing the living room in a soft yellow light - as well as the man curled tiredly up on the sofa.

"You should be in bed." Street tells you flatly, spying you coming out of the corner of his eye. His gaze remains trained on the TV, even as you take a seat on the sofa beside him.

"And you should be there with me." Comes your reply, making him give you the faintest of smiles. He relaxes a little and lets himself lean into you, laying his head on your shoulder as you speak softly. "Couldn't sleep?"

He shakes his head, avoiding your eyes as he traces little patterns into your thigh. "Didn't wanna keep you up."

"Come back to bed. Please?" You ask, expecting him to rebuff you - but to your surprise, he concedes with a nod and lets you lead him back down the hall to bed.
