I always fall asleep at the end. When it's time, I'm done.
I'm spent. Finished. Completely exhausted.
And always alone.
Thank Merlin.
I can only imagine what I'd wake to if I wasn't.
My worse nightmare is finding a face staring up at me; confused, horrified, and not yet understanding what has happened.
Alone is a godsend compared to that, so I accept my solitude willingly.
But tonight, something's different… something's off… oh, sweet Merlin! I'm not alone! There's someone here!
I start to panic, then realize I know that scent.
It's the only thing better than alone.
It's Sirius.
