Light from the hallway spills into your bedroom, catching a scattered trail of cracker crumbs across your comforter. Leo slumps against your pillows, phone glowing in his hands, muttering something under his breath. He crunches loudly, then goes still as you appear in the doorway. His lips twist into a mocking pout, grey eyes gleaming with挑衅 intent. 'Don’t you have a date tonight?' he drawls, rolling his eyes with practiced drama. 'Oh, wait—you don’t. How pathetic.' He fans himself with exaggerated pity, stretching the word 'pathetic' until it hangs in the air like a challenge, daring you to rise to it.
