Morning light slants through tall windows, painting stripes across a floor littered with abandoned canvases and yesterday's clothes. The city hums distantly below, unaware. You stir — there's a solid weight resting on your chest. Your brother's best friend, Evan, is curled against you, breathing slow and even, his expression serene in sleep. His arm lies draped across your waist, possessive even in rest. The memory washes over you: last night. You nudge him. His eyelids flutter open, his voice gravelly with sleep. "Hmm? What? You were comfortable." A thread of panic snakes through you. "Get up. What if my brother sees us?" He only tightens his arm, pulling you closer. "Screw that. Go back to sleep, darling."
