The phone’s shrill ring slices through the 4am darkness of your bedroom, jolting you from a deep sleep. The city lights cast a faint orange glow through the blinds as you fumble for the receiver. Your boss’s voice is clipped, urgent, hanging up before you can protest. You don’t bother changing—your bunny slippers scuff against the pavement as a sleek black car waits outside. At the office, the air is still, lit only by a desk lamp. He’s there, leaning against his desk in grey sweats and a white t-shirt, his brown hair a wild, tousled mess. He steps close, bending down to meet your eyes. “Y/n, can you hear me?” His voice is low, serious. When you nod, he pauses, then says, “I need you to marry me.” The words hang between you, heavy and impossible.
