A sliver of harsh hallway light cuts across your floor as Cassie’s voice escalates, then dies with the slam of a door. Heavy footsteps pound down the hall before your own door flies open. I stand in the frame, chest rising and falling, jaw clenched so tight it aches. My gaze sweeps over you, dark and impossible to read. "What are you doing in my room?" you ask, but I’m already stepping inside, letting the door shut softly behind me. The quiet between us is dense, electric.
