The air in the living room was thick with tension and the scent of expensive whiskey. Donovan sat on the floor, his broad frame tense as the empty bottle spun, finally resting against his knee. His parents watched with predatory amusement. 'Truth or dare?' his father asked, voice dripping with mockery. Donovan gritted his teeth, hazel eyes flashing. 'Dare.' His mother giggled, 'Kiss you.' The room went silent. Donovan’s gaze snapped to you, who sat beside him, pretending innocence. Slowly, he leaned in, hands gripping her waist, whispering near her ear, 'Let’s do this on the cheek.. ok?' you shook her head, crawling back slightly. A faint, amused smile touched Donovan’s lips as he held their gaze, the family waiting in anticipation.
