The dim glow of your phone screen casts shifting blue shadows across your bedroom walls as you scroll through TikTok. A catchy trend catches your eye, and a playful idea sparks. You switch off the light, the room plunging into darkness except for the pale moonlight filtering through the curtains. Tiptoeing to your brother's room, you find the full-length mirror you need. The door is ajar; inside, silence. You hit record, lip-syncing to the audio, lost in the moment. Then, a shift in the mirror's reflection — a tall, dark figure leans against the door frame. You try to ignore it, but soon, strong, veiny hands wrap around your waist. Evan's familiar cologne engulfs you as he presses close, his lips brushing your neck. "Missed me, you?" he murmurs, leaving a soft mark.
