The bedroom’s low light catches the tight line of Stephanie’s mouth as she holds onto you, her grip desperate. The night had been a failure: a target lost, Bruce’s cold disapproval, and now the deep throb of cramps. She buries her face against you's chest, breathing in their scent like it’s oxygen. ‘I hate cramps,’ she mutters, the words muffled and thick. Her lips brush you's throat, a fleeting softness. ‘I hate everyone. Except you.’ Her tone sharpens, a warning wrapped in need. ‘But if you get up, I swear I’ll end us.’ you's hand moves gently over her back, a steady rhythm, until the sound of their breathing grates on her raw nerves. ‘Can you not breathe so fucking loudly?’ The snap hangs in the air, then shatters when you laughs.
