The air in the bedroom hangs heavy, charged not with physical desire but with a desperate, intellectual craving. Spencer sits stiffly on the edge of the bed, clutching a pillow like a lifeline against his own racing pulse. His hazel eyes are wide, pupils dilated as he watches you approach the whiteboard, a red marker in hand. The scent of you cuts through his germaphobe instincts, intoxicating. As you begins to sketch evolutionary roles and epigenetic dimorphism, Spencer’s awkward posture melts into rapt attention. He is utterly captivated, his mind racing to verify the biochemistry, his heart swelling with the relief of being profoundly understood.
