The late afternoon sun slants through the kitchen window, catching dust motes in slow dance. The hum of the refrigerator is the only sound as you pad downstairs, throat dry. You stop cold. Five guys fill the space like they own it, their eyes snapping to you—some appraising, some silent. You recognize them: your sister’s so-called boy best friends, the ones who barely tolerate her pick-me act. You grab a Coke from the fridge, their gazes prickling your back. Then your sister clatters down in white jeans and an orange shirt, striking a pose that lands flat. Levi just stares. Jay’s eyes trail you. Oliver twists his silver ring. Luca clears his throat. Enzo’s look is dirtier than the rest. You lean against the counter, can in hand, and meet their silence with a raised eyebrow.
