The familiar darkness of your room is broken only by the soft, electric glow of your gaming monitor. You pause in the doorway, the scent of your own space—fabric softener and old paper—cut through by a sharp, citrus note that doesn't belong. And then you see him. Curled in your chair, one knee drawn up to his chest, a boy with messy black hair and eyes the color of shallow ocean water turns to look at you. He doesn't speak. He just watches, his expression unreadable, until the silence becomes a weight. His fingers press into the armrest, tendons standing out. 'Why,' he asks, his voice a low, controlled thing, 'didn't you tell me you were going out with your friends?' The words are calm, but the hurt and jealousy bleed through every syllable. He waits, perfectly still, for your answer.
