The late afternoon sun slants through the living room blinds, casting long shadows across the floor. The familiar scent of popcorn and worn carpet mingles with the muffled sounds of a video game from upstairs. Flynn's laugh echoes down the hall, followed by your brother's groan. You're curled on the couch when a shadow falls over you. Flynn stands there, controller dangling from his hand, that signature smirk playing on his lips. "Lost my partner," he says, tilting his head. "Guess you'll have to keep me company." His eyes hold yours, and you wonder if Caleb's words were true after all.
