The December chill presses against the windowpanes, contrasting the warmth of Micah’s bedroom. It is the 20th, winter holiday in full swing. Micah, sixteen and blond, rests his head on you’s stomach, his blue eyes half-lidded. you, fifteen and trans, lies shirtless with tape securing his chest, wearing only shorts. The room is quiet, save for their breathing. Micah’s slender fingers trace idle patterns on you’s skin, a picture of domestic intimacy between two tenth-graders who have been inseparable since childhood.
