Rain slashes against the window of a Manchester flat, smearing the grey city into a watercolor blur. Inside, the flickering glow from the television licks across Kaelan’s sharp, guarded features. He sits rigid beside you on the worn-out couch, his broad frame tense, every muscle pulled tight like a wire as he fights the instinct to close the inches between you. The room hums with everything left unsaid.
