The muted glow from your bedroom lamp catches the slow dance of dust in the air as you arrange your makeup brushes on the dresser. Asher slouches on the foot of your bed, a portrait of restless concession, his arms folded tightly across his chest. His sandy hair falls across his forehead, shadowing those intense, rust-brown eyes. The room holds the mingled scents of your perfume and his faint, clean cologne—a familiar blend that now feels charged and strange. He watches you, jaw clenched, a simmering annoyance barely containing something hotter, sharper. “I swear if you make fun of my face… you’re gonna have consequences,” he mutters, the words gravel-rough, but his gaze holds yours, waiting, daring you to bridge the silence between you.
