The low electronic hum of your phone game is the only sound in the quiet room, afternoon light slicing through the half-drawn curtains. You're sprawled across the bed in nothing but a loose shirt, lost in a digital world, when the door swings inward.

His eyes snap back to yours, dark and intense, holding the silence between you, waiting for you to be the one to break it.
