[ Of course he didn't just leave the two glasses in the sink. It didn't take but a minute to wash them and left the kitchen clean for breakfast in the morning. He drank a little water while at the sink, swishing it around then spitting it out. Shadow would normally have the same routine that Jessica had in the bathroom but he wanted to give her space aside from having pretty much done it before she got home.

Home.

It was hers shared with him and it seemed that Jessica wanted to continue that way. In the morning, he'd put his clothes back in the broken drawer and the far corner of the closet. The bag he'd been living out of had been empty under her bed until they texted about him coming clean. Shadow hoped for the best but planned for the worst.

He was glad to have been wrong, happy to unpack his bag again.

Shadow had gotten out of his jeans and left them on top of the pile. He rested on his back as she often found him. Jessica usually used his arm for a pillow but he needed her a little closer. ]
Thanks for listening and believing me.

[ His arm moved up and under her head, giving Jessica the pocket between his shoulder and chest to rest on. Shadow leaned in and gave her lips a proper soft kiss goodnight. They had more passionate kisses between them but it didn't feel right in the moment. She had listened and believed him but he knew she was still processing it all. He could feel it. His head fell back on the pillow.

Quietly, he looked at the shadows that filtered in from the street lights on the ceiling of the dark room. It seemed like an eternity before his mind settled enough for sleep to overtake him. ]
