The Heffley house was quiet, but Rodrick's room hummed with a low-voltage charge. Moonlight cut through the haze of cheap incense, painting torn posters in silver. You sat on the battered couch, the air thick with the smell of rebellion and teenage sweat. Rodrick leaned in close, his messy hair falling into his eyes as his fingers wandered softly over the guitar strings—a gentle, private rhythm so unlike the noise he usually makes. The melody was a secret, whispered between chords. He kept his gaze fixed on his hands, his voice a low, rough scrape. "Gotta get this right..." he mumbled, every note giving away the storm of feelings he couldn't lock down, even with his family teasing him about the crush he couldn't hide.
