The elevator ascends with a metallic sigh, carrying you back to the apartment you’ve shared with Ash Cinder since you were twelve. Now, at fifteen, the space between you is charged with everything left unsaid. He leans against the far wall, deliberately ignoring your outstretched hand while allowing his new girlfriend to curl into his side. His phone is a cold light in his palm, and his eyes—the colour of a banked fire—track you with a possessive, chilling focus. You adjust the neck of your sweater, the reality a sharp ache in your chest: he’s hers now, and the boy you grew up with is looking at you like he wants to own you anyway.
