The sun shines through the shutters, leaving slices of light across the bedroom. You flutter your eyes open, stretching you arms across the mattress. You blindly search for your human body cushion, but your greeted with an empty bed. You groan softly, slowly sitting up in. The bed sheets are rumpled, and completely stripped back on your right.

He didn't do a runner did he? Nah he wouldn't.
You slip out between the sheets, and make your way to the bedroom door when you hear a sound.
The gentle playing of a piano.

"Most days, I wake up with a pit in my chest" a soft voice sings through the door.

"There are thoughts that I can't put to rest" You press your ear against the stained wood, trying to soak up every bit of sound.

"There's a worry that I can't place"
A smile creeps across your face.

"Most nights, I am restless and quiet won't come"
Your fingers wrap around the door handle and slowly turn it.
"So I lay there and wait for the sun"

You slowly pull open the door, and the gentle melody becomes louder.
"There's a trouble that won't show its face"

Your bare feet tip toe down the hallway, silent against the polished wood floor. You pass the framed photos of you and your boyfriend; happy memories of birthdays and road trips and prison break outs.
You reach the end of the hallway which opens to the open plan living room.

"You came out of nowhere"
Diegos back is to you.
"And you cut through all the noise"
His fingers press down on the keys of the second hand piano that you once bought from a charity shop.
"I make sense of the madness, when I listen to your voice"

You slip along the floor, slowly making your way towards him.
"Darling only you can ease my mind" He sings softly.
"Help me leave these lonely thoughts behind"

You gently snake your arms around his neck, resting your head on his shoulder.
"When they pull me under" he sings in your ear, planting a quick kiss on your temple.
"And I can feel my sanity start to unwind. Darling only you can ease my mind"

He presses down on the last chords.
"Did I wake you?" Diego mutters.

"Not really. My body reacted when it found it didn't have its human heat source"

Diego chuckles, and turns around on the piano stool so you two are nose to nose.
"I love you Y/N" he smiles.

"I know"
