Sophia

Sophia sank into the couch, letting the blanket slip from her shoulders. Her hair fell in loose, messy waves around her face, dark smudges under her eyes a quiet testament to the night she’d just lived. She pressed a hand to her temple, feeling the lingering ache in rhythm with her pulse, and exhaled slowly, letting herself sink into the cushions. She leaned back fully, settling into the quiet of the apartment, satisfied in the knowledge that she’d lived the night on her own terms—and hoping her roommate might want to experience it too.
