**BOY X BOY** Amber light from the television washes over the living room, painting everything in the soft, nostalgic hues of a fall film. You're settled beside Kieran, your closest friend in the group, the comfortable silence you share now charged with everything you've kept hidden. Then you feel it—a gentle, deliberate weight as he leans into you, his head coming to rest softly against your shoulder. The scent of his sweater, the quiet rhythm of his breathing, it all becomes immense. The movie plays on, but the only story you can follow is the one hammering inside your chest.
