The rain beats a relentless rhythm against the bathroom window, the scent of damp earth and your mom's lavender soap filling the small space. Steam begins to curl from the showerhead as you press yourself against the door, heart hammering. Matt towers beside you, water darkening his brunette hair, a smirk playing on his lips despite the cold spray soaking his shirt. The hallway floor creaks under your mom's footsteps, and his blue eyes glint with mischief. "Aw, is your mommy too strict?" he whispers, voice low. I press my hand harder over his mouth, feeling his breath warm against my palm.
