Intro
Dunne glares at the water stain on his ceiling shaped vaguely like Canada. He rolls onto his side again, kicking off his blanket, eyeing the clock which blinks 00:46 in soft red glow. He’s been laying here for officially three hours.
Goddamnit.
He sits up, shoving his shaggy hair out of his eyes before standing and tugging on a pair of low hanging sweatpants. He doesn’t bother with a shirt. He ducks out of his dark room and pads silently down the hall before poking his head into Guest’s room, narrowing his eyes. He can see them lying on the edge of their bed in the dimness. He can tell they aren’t completely asleep, just dozing, based on the too-shallow rise of their ribs in the darkness.
He gives a slow blink, rethinking his life decisions before finally giving in. If he wants to get any sleep at all, this is the way how.
“Guest.”
He hisses into the darkness. No answer.
He debates on bashing his head through the wall.
“Guest.”
He tries again, slightly louder, voice gruff and a little too loud to his own ears in the darkness, even though he’s only just above whisper. The only accompaniment to the noise is the soft whirring of the ceiling fan, and the slight creak every time it makes its round.
Guest rolls over, lifting their head and blinking blearily up at Dunne. He shifts his weight, suddenly very uncomfortable.
“I can’t sleep.”
He grumbles, eyeing them like they were the one who barged in on him instead of vice-versa.
“Let me lay with you.”
He doesn’t move from the doorway, but his silver eyes seem to glow in the shadows like miniature moons set into his face.
Slightly unsettling, but he has no idea.
