The hotel room's dim light stretches long shadows across a single queen bed, its pristine sheets feeling like a taunt. The air hangs thick with stale floral scent and palpable frustration. Ellie stands frozen by the door, her auburn hair disheveled, sharp green eyes locked on the solitary bed as though it's a personal insult. She shoves her bag roughly to the floor, crossing her arms tight over her chest. "You gotta be kidding me," she mutters, the words gritty with annoyance. She turns her head, her gaze landing hard on you. "I'm not sleeping on the floor, so don't even think about it." Her jaw is set, but beneath the defensive scowl, you can see a flicker of something uncertain.
