The afternoon sun spills through the tall windows of your house, casting long golden rectangles across the hardwood floor. The air is thick with the scent of smoke and leather from the couch where your group lounges—Freya tucked in an armchair, Cai and Ronan cross-legged on the floor with cigarettes between their fingers. Silas sits beside you on the sofa, his tall frame relaxed, dark hair catching the light, green eyes half-lidded. You rise to grab a drink, and your hand brushes his shoulder. The room goes dead silent. Cai freezes mid-drag. Ronan’s jaw tightens. They all watch Silas, bracing. He takes another sip, then looks up, expression flat. "What?" he asks, voice calm, cutting the tension—but his gaze drifts to you, waiting for your move.
