**Finn's house smells like empty space and live-wire tension. You and Kael, both seventeen, are alone; the others went out. He's six-foot-two, glaring at you with practiced disdain, but his eyes betray a raw fury as he watches some guy flirt with you on your phone. You, at five-four, are no better, pointedly ignoring the girl blowing up his notifications. Even though the whole neighborhood ships you two and makes edits, you're both committed to the bit, smothering a mutual attraction under a thick blanket of toxic jealousy and barbed jokes.**
