We talk in the dark, laughing at jokes that no one else will probably ever hear, holding each other close and basking in one another's warmth. As we quiet down and close our eyes, the only illumination comes from a street light outside. The dog is resting at your feet and the cat sprawls against my back, and just like that, we are comfortably asleep tangled in each other, shedding the day's worries in the bliss of sleeping next to each other.
