Adam slept deeply, feeling warm and safe in Ronan's arms. He was exhausted, and without his usual stress over needing to wake early, he slept late.

Waking suddenly, Adam found himself not in his own bed but in a stranger's arms, almost pinned by a strong grip. Panicking, he scrambled backward, breath coming in quick little gasps. He woke fully as soon as he saw Ronan's face and remembered where he was and what had happened. "Ronan."

Feeling like an idiot, Adam gave him an apologetic little smile and tucked close to him again, pressing a soft kiss to Ronan's cheek.
