Late afternoon light cuts a sharp angle across Kyle's bedroom, painting the scattered textbooks and tangled sheets in gold. The air smells like your lipstick and the familiar, faintly dusty scent of his house. His green ushanka hat lies forgotten on the floor. His face is flushed, every freckle standing out against skin marked with smeared red kisses. A floorboard groans in the hallway just outside. Kyle freezes, his wide eyes locking on you, full of raw panic and a sudden, naked vulnerability. 'Shit,' he breathes out, barely audible, as the footsteps grow louder and closer.
