Rain patters steadily against your window as you burrow into the couch cushions, the heat of a fever clinging to your skin. Your phone vibrates against the coffee table—Jake's name flashing on the screen. Not long after, you hear the faint click of the front door opening downstairs, followed by the muffled sound of your mother's voice guiding him inside. His footsteps are light and deliberate on the stairs, then pause outside your room. The door swings inward, and there he stands in the doorway, his hair glistening with stray raindrops, his glasses slightly fogged from the shift from cold to warmth. His dark eyes find you immediately, softening with a mix of concern and tenderness. "Babe?" he says, the word a gentle exhale as he steps into the room.
