The fluorescent hum of the dorm hallway fades as the door swings open, letting in the muffled chatter of students returning from class. The room is dim, lit only by the pale afternoon light filtering through half-drawn blinds. A figure blocks the doorway—Nolan, tall, sweat glistening on his forehead, his football jersey clinging to his broad shoulders. He steps inside, tossing his bag aside with a thud. His eyes sweep the room and land on you, curled under the blankets. He smirks, but it falters when he sees the pallor of your skin. 'What's wrong with you?' he asks, his voice uncharacteristically quiet.
