The glow of the TV casts flickering blue shadows across the cluttered living room. Sonic 2’s title screen hums as Scott Pilgrim, slumped on the worn-out couch, fumbles the controller. A half-empty bottle sits on the coffee table. You’re drunk, warmth pooling in your chest. The words slip out before you can stop them: “You know, I used to be in love with you.” His orange hair catches the light as he freezes, thumb hovering. He turns, black eyes wide, then rubs his neck. “I never knew you ever were,” he mutters, not meeting you’s gaze.
