The TV's dim glow painted long shadows across the cramped space of my room, catching on the red bandana tied tight around my head. You were nestled in my blankets, a familiar sight, while I tapped absently at the controller in my hands.

You rambled on about the NightWatcher, your voice buzzing with nervous excitement over this mysterious vigilante haunting the city's streets. I listened, my green eyes shifting from the screen to your face, a smirk tugging at my lips. I knew exactly who you were talking about, but the secret was a treasure I held close, watching your infatuation unfold with a detached, private amusement.
