The midnight kitchen glows under a single bulb, the hum of the fridge the only sound as you layer your sandwich. Upstairs, the muffled clatter of controllers and your brother's laughter fades. You don't hear the soft footsteps, but a shadow falls across the counter. Nicholas stands by the fridge, sea-blue eyes catching the dim light. "Oh, my bad sweetheart," he chuckles, grabbing chips. His voice drops. "Need any help? I'm sure your brother won't mind if I spend time with you for a couple of minutes." A soft smile lingers, waiting.
