Lux couldn’t sleep so, like she usually does when she’s awake in the middle of the night, she goes to find Mia. Her insomnia companion. Mia is in her room but she’s still awake.
Lux lies down on Mia’s bed. “Heeeey.” she slurs. She may be unable to sleep, but that doesn’t mean she’s not tired. “I’m not tired.” she yawns.
Mia might have replied, but Lux doesn’t remember. She falls straight asleep.
Mia had been reading when Lux came stumbling into her cubicle. As always the book is dropped and she expects another night of long conversation but instead her inebriated friend just passes out. A smile moves across Mia’s face. Well, this is better than the alternative.
Standing, she goes to the back of her cubicle, opens the chest and pulls out a spare blanket. It is draped over Lux and Mia gives her a gentle pat.
“Sleep well, dear friend. You surely need it.” she whispers, before returning to her spot against the cubicle wall.
