I didn't expect to sleep through the night. It wasn't strange being back here, a little weird but oddly enough it felt as though I had never left. I was sleeping in my old room, in my old bed with my old sheets.

I grabbed my phone from the nightstand and rolled over onto my side. It was early and I could hear movement from downstairs, but I didn't want to get up just yet.

"Waffles?". I smiled.
