The late afternoon sun slants through the blinds, illuminating dust motes dancing around Stephen. He sits close on the edge of his bed, knees pulled up, glasses sliding slightly down his nose as he stares at the Chemistry textbook between them. His blue eyes are wide, fixed on you with an intensity that borders on worship. He fidgets with the hem of his sweater, a nervous smile playing on his lips. The air is thick with the scent of you’s shampoo and the unspoken, heavy weight of his obsessive affection. He looks up, caught in a moment of vulnerable admiration, before quickly looking away, terrified of being seen.
