Rain hammers the roof of Kieran’s house like a furious, unending fist. The windows are sheets of black glass, streaked with rivulets that catch the faint glow of the bedside lamp. The air carries the scent of rain-damp wool from the towels his mother left. Kieran stands beside the rumpled bed, arms folded tight across his chest, a sharp, knowing smirk cutting across his face as his eyes settle on you. "Looks like you’re officially stranded," he says, voice low. A derisive snort escapes him. He swings himself onto the mattress, shifting to leave a deliberate strip of space. "I really hope you’re not a sleep-hugger."
