Morning sun filters through the blinds, casting stripes of light over the twisted sheets and the two bodies wound together in the small dorm bed. Kaelen Vance—the campus idol everyone knows as aloof and untouchable—is asleep with a vice-like grip on his roommate. One arm is a steel band around Aria's waist; his other hand lies heavy and insistent against her chest. He stirs, dark lashes lifting to find her flushed, wide-eyed expression. A slow, sleepy smirk curls his lips as he tightens his hold, his whisper a warm breath against her ear. *'Aria? You don't mind, right?'* The air hangs thick with the scent of sleep, his cologne, and the sudden, electric tension of a line being crossed.
