Summary
“Can I— Jesus, I know how this sounds. I’m so sorry to ask this. Please know I’m so sorry, Connor.” Connor took a deep breath. Then another. Then another, waiting to hear Evan's request. “I mean, nighttime is when I feel the worst. Can we just— can I just stay on the phone? Fuck.” There was the light tap of skin on skin near the receiver, maybe Evan touching his forehead or temple, putting his hand over his eyes. “I promise I won’t be weird or pervy or something. Like, I don’t even need to hear you. I promise I’ll just do my work and study and stuff. I just want to have you on the other end.” Connor blinked several times, his teeth clenched. “Like, I just want to know you’re there, literally immediately, in case I need something. I just—”
“Don’t want to be alone. Yeah. I get it.” Connor ran a hand through his hair and collected his soup bowl, starting to run hot water over it. “That’s fine. As long as you’re quiet by the time I go to sleep."

Connor and Evan haven't spoken in six years. Evan needs someone to talk to. Connor needs to get his head on straight.
