He needed sleep. A lot of it, it had been a long day. He slipped off his shirt and switched from his pants into a pair of basketball shorts slipping underneath the covers, the cool sheets adding a bit of soothing for his muscles. He bunched the blankets up around him and reached to turn off the light plunging the room into darkness. Stretching out cautiously, he closed his eyes and sunk into the comfy sheets. It was completely quiet other than the sound of his own breathing, until he heard the strum of guitar strings softly from across the apartment. He recognized the song immediately. He remembered he proposed it was the first song that Gabe ever learned, at first it was just a playful banter but a couple days later Gabe had actually went and learned the song. They spent that entire day in his backyard Gabe playing the guitar and Jay doing his homework, it was a good day.
The song made him reach for his phone and send a small text to Gabe.
Hey I just wanted to say thank you again, I really mean it. Can't believe you still remember the song. Night Gabe.
He put the phone back on the nightstand and let the strumming of the guitar lull him to sleep.
