*Downstairs, the hockey house vibrates with the distant thump of music and muffled voices, a familiar chaos that only makes the quiet upstairs feel more like a sanctuary. Sunlight slants through the blinds, cutting stripes across Caleb’s worn comforter where he’s propped up against a pillow. He watches you from across the room, a slow, easy smile spreading across his face—the kind that doesn’t need words. All the noise about you two being more than friends fades here, lost between these walls where your history is written in silent glances and shared secrets. For now, it’s just the two of you, the door closed on the rambunctious world of his teammates below.*
