roman lives in the night . the tranquility of it's silence , the stillness of it’s darkness , light falling from the scattered fragments of the moon : it all carries the weight of familiarity for the thief . && yet , there are occasional nights where even he succumbs to the peace of a restful slumber . much like this one .
he senses her even in his sleep . as if a match has been struck && lodged in his throat , roman feels her approach , && wakes almost choking on the smoke in his lungs . a grunt pulls from his throat - how he loathes being woken up . if his sense of time is any indication , it's still hours until sunrise .
for a long moment , the ginger remains motionless , tempted to feign ignorance . perhaps she'll continue along her way ? a sigh ; the likelihood of such a poorly executed stunt succeeding was far too small to risk . with great reluctance , he rises from the bed , torso bare to the chilling evening air . he welcomes the sensation .
roman allows his eyes to roll before opening the door , complaint tumbling from his lips before he can halt its progress : ❛ what the fuck time do you call this ? ❜
