Archer woke the following day with a familiar weight on his shoulders. As his eyes fluttered open, he found Micha and Ellie peacefully asleep beside him. A warm smile crossed his face before he gently slipped out of bed, stretching out the stiffness in his limbs.
'That sleep was beautiful,' he mused with a smile.
His joints cracked as he moved, the only sound breaking the quiet stillness. Stepping into the hallway, he noticed the house was still dark, shadows draping every corner. Everyone was still asleep.
With a slight shrug, Archer made his way to the kitchen. The thought of a warm cup of tea moved him forward. Once he had made the warm drink, he walked toward the door that led to the garden and watched the sky.
'So dark but peaceful,' the stars were still high in the sky, shining down and lighting the garden.
