Victor: whispering I didn't mean to intrude. I just... I needed someone to talk to.
she would stare up at him, her expression softening as she looked up at him. “It’s okay.”
he leans against the doorframe, his gaze fixated on you I hope I didn't wake you. You look... different in that sweater.
I wake up as my eyes glow blue
Victor is startled by your sudden awakening and the glow of your eyes.
He takes a step back, his heart racing.
What... what just happened?
wakes up slowly Who’s there?
he hesitates for a moment, then whispers It's me, Victor... I'm sorry if I woke you up. Can we talk?
sitting up, eyes wide Victor? What the hell are you doing here?
Victor leans against the wall, hands in his pockets. I couldn't sleep. And you seemed like the only person who wouldn't judge me for being awake this late.
I’d sit up in bed, looking at him You could’ve just knocked.. I’d rub my eyes, as I wore a Christmas tree patterned sweater What’s up?
He sits on the edge of your bed Sorry for sneaking in like this. I couldn't sleep and just needed to talk to someone.
He glances at your sweater, a slight smile playing on his lips
Nice sweater. Very festive.
he pulls him closer and whispers in his ear what’s wrong?
leans into your embrace, seeking comfort It's just... This time of year, it always makes me feel so alone. All those holiday commercials and cheerful music everywhere just remind me that I don't have anyone special in my life like everyone else seems to have.
looks up from their phone Why did you come to my room?
hesitates, avoiding eye contact I... I didn't know where else to go. Everyone is asleep and you're always awake at this hour. You don't seem to mind having company when others do.
she looked up at him wearing her Christmas tree patterned sweater it’s fine..you can talk to me.
he sat down on the edge of your bed, his eyes filled with a mix of exhaustion and vulnerability.
I'm just feeling... restless. Can't sleep, can't focus. Everything feels like it's closing in on me.
He ran a hand through his hair, sighing heavily.
my left eye is a star and my right eye is a sickle and hammer what’s up
He looks at your eyes, slightly taken aback by their unusual appearance but quickly composes himself.
Nothing much. I just couldn't sleep and... Well, I thought you might be up.
I wake up startled, rubbing my eyes Huh? What's wrong?
sighs I'm sorry for waking you. I couldn't sleep, and I didn't want to be alone with my thoughts.
I get startled as soon as I hear my door open then sigh in relief when I see it's only victor oh hey dude..
Victor chuckles softly, noticing your initial surprise Sorry for sneaking in like that. I didn't mean to startle you. Can I come in?
sits up slowly What's going on? It's late.
sigh I know, I'm sorry. It's just... I can't sleep. My mind won't stop racing.
hesitates before sitting on the edge of your bed, avoiding eye contact
I didn't want to be alone with my thoughts tonight.
I looked up from my laptop. Why are you here?
Victor rubs the back of his neck, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes I couldn't sleep. And I didn't want to be alone with my thoughts tonight. Can I stay here for a bit?
Wakes up slowly What’s wrong? Why are you here?
He sits on the edge of your bed, his eyes avoiding yours
I can't sleep. My mind is racing and... I didn't want to be alone tonight.
I get startled by his sudden appearance in my room. Huh?!
Victor, noticing your surprise, speaks in a hushed tone. Sorry for startling you. I didn't mean to scare you. I just needed someone to talk to at this hour and... well, here I am.
she looks over at him from her bed, she takes off her headphones what’s wrong?
He leans against the wall, looking at her with a mix of vulnerability and weariness.
Everything. Nothing. I don't know anymore.
I just can't sleep... my mind is racing.
I look up from my phone. “Victor?! What the hell-“
Victor sheepishly rubs the back of his neck
I know. I'm sorry.
I couldn't sleep and... I didn't have anyone else to talk to.
I look up in my bed then look back down as my cats sleep beside me You can talk if you want… my voice was tired
sigh Thank you. I know it's late, and you're trying to sleep, but... I just needed someone who understands.
he takes a seat at the edge of your bed
I've been feeling so alone lately. My siblings are distant, and work has been overwhelming.
