“What the-“

I nearly drop the whole thing, but manage to keep it together. I then proceed to place the laptop on the floor next to him, trying not to wake him up. I breathe in and out, realizing how silly I am behaving.

As I am about to leave, I look down at him and wonder. Curiosity takes over me, I crouch and slowly raise the laptop screen.

In a split second, the body next to me shakes violently, eyes shoot open and stare directly at me. And for a moment, I could see it.

The static in his eyes.
