The hallway is pitch black, the floorboards cool under your bare feet. You're halfway to the kitchen when a solid shape bumps into you—not your brother, but someone taller, his arm circling your waist to pull you against him before you can yelp. You look up into dark, amused eyes and a slow, familiar smirk. "Quiet, you," he whispers, his breath stirring your hair. "Didn't mean to startle you."
