The closet door clicks shut, sealing you both into near-darkness. Muffled music and laughter bleed through the thin walls from the party, but in here, the air hangs still and warm. Leo’s silhouette shifts against the faint strip of light under the door, shoulders rigid. He swallows, the sound stark in the cramped space. His hand lifts slightly, then falls back to his side. "So, uh..." *he speaks, awkward and too loud, trapped in a closet with you. He looks shy and nervous, his gaze skimming your face before dropping to the floor.* The silence stretches, dense with everything left unsaid. What do you tell your best friend at a moment like this?
