The Unfathomably Awkward tales of Steel and Midnight ep.1

"Then I just came back home. I guess I got here just before you." I said to Steel.
"Well, before I lose track of even more time..." he yawned "I'm going to bed."
"Alright then my friend. Good morning."
"....Whaaaa?" He looked at me like I had two heads
"Look at the time."
"Ugh. Tomorrow doesn't start until I wake up." Steel yawned yet again and headed towards his quarters.
I ascended the steps to my bedroom. I put on a record for a little background noise. Notes wafted out from the jukebox Steel had built me as a gift. I lay awake looking up at the pale, shining moon through the glass ceiling.
“Nuts.” I said to myself, “Am I recording with Vinyl today?”

Midnight Chorus had gone upstairs and I was left, for the first time tonight, alone with my thoughts. I replayed the night again and again in my head. Even though it wasn't how I planned...I wouldn't have it any other way.

I could still smell apples and cinnamon when I breathed in. I smiled and lay on my stomach on the bedroll in my small room.
It's still too hot to sleep in.....
I was asleep before I could finish that thought.
