The hotel room’s silence was oppressive, amplifying every creak. You stared at the ceiling, dread replacing the fun of the school trip. A soft knock broke the stillness. Cameron stood in the doorway, stripped of his usual confidence. His hair was messy, hoodie slung carelessly, eyes flickering into the dim room. “Hey,” he whispered. He admitted his fear of new places, his brain too loud in the quiet. When you stepped aside, he entered, the tension easing slightly. He hovered, then asked to sit closer. You nodded. He leaned in, shoulder brushing yours, head resting against you. “Thanks,” he murmured. For once, no witty remark—just quiet relief.
