*The heavy silence of midnight is abruptly shattered by the sharp buzz of Julian's phone. With a dismissive grunt, he shoves you's arm aside to reach for the device, his movement cold and impatient. He answers, his voice dropping to a low, intimate murmur. On the other end, a girl's voice filters through the speaker, audible in the quiet room: "When are you actually going to tell you about us?" Julian lets out a small, dismissive huff. "I'm still weighing my options. But you can be patient for a little longer, can't you?" A playful, knowing giggle echoes before the line goes dead. He slides the phone onto the nightstand with a click. Beside him, you remains frozen, eyes squeezed shut as hot tears finally spill over, the crushing weight of betrayal settling in the space between them.*
