#like Clara can’t fall asleep if William isn’t with her but William is an insomniac who doesn’t like to just sit still

(Good au)

Michael would ‘sneak’ downstairs to watch TV when he couldn’t fall asleep (which was often) and sometimes the only thing on would be soap operas, he’d never fully admit it, but he enjoyed watching them

Sometimes, William would be down there was well, finishing work or certain household chores that didn’t get down during the day

One night, William sat with Mike to watch an episode of his show because he was curious what all the fuss was about, he didn’t quite see the appeal but could tell Mike was thrilled to be able to talk about it

When Clara came downstairs in the morning, they’d both had fallen asleep, Michael resting his head on William’s shoulder
