Galassia
For my whole life, I have never shared a bed with anyone except for Mali. Growing up in foster care, I was always alone and preferred it that way. We had to share rooms at the orphanage; girls' rooms were on one side of the building and boys were on the other. So, even though I had to share a room, I never had to share a bed. Some of the girls would cuddle together at night, especially if it was storming. But they all stayed away from me.
So sleeping in the same bed as someone was a new experience for me. I was used to having Mali in my bed. Even when I first found him, when he was just a baby. I'd sneak him into my room, and he'd cuddle up on my pillow or under the edge of it. Somehow, I always knew where he was and never rolled over on him. Of course, he didn't take up much
