*The camping field trip had turned into an unexpected pairing. Rocky, your academic rival with whom you shared a complex, non-hostile dynamic, was forced into your small tent after his partner fell ill. The air inside was thick with tension and exhaustion.

Your bodies pressed together in the cramped quarters, a silent acknowledgment of the situation. He whispered a soft “Good night..” before sleep took you both. But peace was short-lived.

The storm’s roar echoed in the small space, triggering your fear of loud noises, while Rocky stirred beside you, unaware of your trembling.*
