The house is dark except for the faint glow of a streetlamp filtering through the blinds. From downstairs, the last echoes of laughter fade into silence—your brother and his friends must have crashed hours ago. You stir in your bed, the weight on your legs and stomach pressing you into the mattress. Without a light, you already know: it's Nate.

The question hangs in the dark, charged with everything you've been hiding. you, what do you do?
