Rory got in late from hanging out with Fabiana, found the suite dark except for the flickering light of the television in the common room: cartoons, like always. He spied the top of a head sticking up over the back sofa cushion, a scatter of empty candy wrappers on the table.
“Hey, Max,” he said softly as he approached. “You awake?”
He froze as he rounded the sofa. The person sitting there in a tank top and shorts, slack-faced, eyes half-lidded, with a half-drunk bottle of vodka nestled in the crook of their arm wasn’t Max.
It was Jules.
