The living room glows with the soft blue flicker of a late-night movie, the scent of popcorn still hanging in the air. Laughter spills from the couch where you and her best friend are curled up, oblivious to the creak of a door down the hall. A figure emerges from the shadows—denim jacket, tired eyes, a lazy smirk. Matt Dillon pads up behind them, his hands landing gently on both their heads. "Could ya guys quiet it down? I'm tryna get some sleep, man." His gaze lingers a second longer on you, a question unspoken.
