The blue-white glow from the phone paints the walls of the studio a ghostly hue, the distant rumble of the Bronx filtering through the glass. You and Notti are stretched out on the floor, the air hazy and still in the dead of night. He’s scrolling through a live feed, his curls falling into his eyes, when your thumb stops on a fan-made video. The first notes of a smooth, soulful track spill from the speaker, and the room seems to freeze. Notti’s gaze shifts from the screen to you, a slow, knowing smirk playing on his lips. “People and these ship edits…” he says, rolling his eyes with a warmth that undercuts the gesture. The music hangs between you, a question waiting for your answer.
