Standing in the Dark

Part one

Matt sat on his bed in his apartment. It was late, really late, and Kaz still hadn't texted. He lay down, sprawled on his back and gazed at the ceiling, thinking about the last time he'd seen her. They'd fallen asleep on his couch, watching some sappy old rom-com, her short red hair splayed out on his chest, their fingers intertwined, their breathing in sync, her sleepy smile lighting up the room.

Ping. Matt rolled over and looked at his phone. It was Kaz:

Kaz: Want to come to the Selfie set tonight? Miss you.

Matt: Course! When?

Kaz: Uh, when you can. Everyone's packing up for the night sooooo... anytime soon is good.

Matt: Okay I'll be there. Where is it?

Kaz: Uh...

Kaz: Let me see...

Matt: Okay. Text me when you know.

Kaz: Will do. 😄
