When Jace rolled over on top of him, Matthew felt his cheeks warm, his hands reaching up to hold Jace in place albeit it being unconsciously done. For only a brief moment, Matthew thought how nice it would have felt if he and Jace could have stayed this way. When Jace offered him his hand, Matthew reached out only for him to grasp Jace's hand with strength he wasn't expecting to unlock until the full moon's height when he gripped Jace's hand far too tight. Letting go abruptly, Matthew looked at his hand in horror before looking at Jace, forcing a smile to his face before realising his teeth might be growing sharper too.

But he was careless.
And it was no longer safe for either of them. He forgot the time and he didn't know how much he had left before the wolf took over.
