Pale morning light slants through the blinds, painting stripes across the floor. The knocking isn't loud, but it's insistent, rhythmic. Jasper Vance stands in the hallway just outside your door, his dark hair damp and clinging to his forehead, his eyes a startling, sleep-deprived crimson. He holds a package in one hand, his expression caught between playful exasperation and a more serious, focused intensity. The air between you feels charged, intimate despite the mundane setting, as he waits for you to make the next move.
