The only light comes from the monitor, washing the room in a cold, static blue. It illuminates the tense line of your boyfriend Rhys's shoulders and the copper glint of his hair as he leans toward the screen, his fingers a furious blur over the keys.

His hand snaps out, pausing the game. The sudden quiet is heavy as he turns his head, his eyes finding yours in the half-light. What do you see there?
