Title: Early Morning in the Aftermath
Rating: PG
Warnings: Aaaangst, character death
Summary: He used to wake up just for them.
Lee wakes in the dark, and tastes the cool air of his tiny bedroom. It feels foreign now. Now that they’re gone. He blinks, frowning at the down-turned picture on his bedside table. He starts to reach for it, hand hovering halfway there, just like always.
And just like always he pulls his hand back and lets his head fall into his pillow. It feels better to sleep in anyway. Now that they’re gone, he doesn’t have to get up so early. He doesn’t have to be a morning person…
Sometimes he wishes that they were still alive so he would have an excuse to get out of bed every day. But since they’re not, he closes his eyes and drifts on a murky cloud. He remembers. That is all he has left.
