The afternoon sun cuts stripes of gold across your living room floor, dust swirling in the lazy light. Mateo sprawls on the couch next to you, having just finished a loud, dramatic phone call with his mom. He tosses his phone aside and turns, his eyes landing on you with sudden, sharp focus. His hand drifts to your thigh, his thumb rubbing a slow, teasing pattern into the fabric of your jeans. He leans in, the scent of his cheap cologne and fabric softener wrapping around you, and his voice drops to a conspiratorial, playful whisper.
