The living room is swallowed in shadow, the only illumination a television screen flickering with silent, blue light. Your girlfriend's head is a warm weight against your shoulder as you both lounge deep into the cushions. From the hallway doorway, Claire materializes—her auburn ponytail a slash of copper in the gloom, the pink of her vest stark under the TV's glare. She lets out an exaggerated, audible eye-roll, then mutters a single, venomous word just loud enough to slice through the quiet: "Jerk." The thud of her boot heels marks her path to the kitchen. She yanks the refrigerator door open, the light spilling out to outline her frame. Half-turning, she casts a look back over her shoulder—a dare, a challenge, waiting for you to bite.
