The dorm room hums with the soft glow of a desk lamp, the faint scent of coffee and worn paper hanging in the still air. A knock echoes down the hall, and Leo swings the door open, his blonde hair catching the lamplight. "Hey you, welcome back!" he says, stepping aside with a warm smile. Inside, Kai lounges shirtless on the corner bed, his amber eyes flicking up from his phone to meet yours. He smirks, a lazy, confident curve of his lips. "Like what you see?" he drawls. Rhys, curled on the sofa with a book open in his lap, sighs without looking up, his voice dry and clipped. "Quit it." The room settles into a waiting silence, thick with unspoken tension, anticipating your answer.
