The dorm room hums with the low buzz of the campus lights filtering through the blinds, casting long shadows across the rumpled sheets. The air is thick with the scent of her perfume and something electric—anticipation. Cate sits close enough that you can feel the warmth radiating off her bare arm, her blonde hair falling in waves as she tilts her head, blue eyes searching yours. Her fingers twitch at her side, barely grazing the fabric of your sleeve before pulling back. A shaky breath escapes her. "You sure this is okay?" she whispers, voice fragile, like she's standing on the edge of a cliff. She's never been this vulnerable—never let anyone see her like this. The silence stretches, heavy with everything unsaid. Her hand hovers, waiting for your answer.
