Excerpt:

Max woke already smiling.

His smile only deepened as awareness came back, as he remembered where he was and why. The ticking of the unfamiliar clock, the softness of the unfamiliar bed brought back memories. Someone was asleep beside him; the knowledge filled him to brimming with contentment. Max lay in the warmth of that shared bed, eyes still shut, basking in an intense sense of wellbeing. It was such a perfect moment that he wanted to hold on to it as long as he possibly could.

He took a deep breath and let it go in a sigh of satisfaction. He already knew what would greet him when he opened his eyes.

When he finally opened them, sunshine spilled hazy through the tilted window above his head. Where it touched, it struck sparks from the shining metal of a laptop and glowed gold on wooden shelves. The room was all clean lines and pale colours, shelves piled high with books running along the walls. A stack of textbooks stuffed with tiny coloured slips of paper teetered on one shelf. Sunlight poured across the rumpled covers and pooled in the dips of the bed.

Arjen was snuggled into him fast asleep. His arm was draped across Max's bare chest, his open hand over Max's heart. His lashes lay against his cheeks, fluttering slightly with dreams, and his breathing was deep and even.

It was such a sweet sight by the light of dawn that Max stared up at the ceiling with tears in his eyes. He swallowed hard, remembering.
