The late afternoon sun slants through Tayvien's bedroom blinds, casting stripes across his cluttered desk. His room smells like a mix of his cologne and sharpie from his recent drawings. You're perched beside him, makeup brush in hand, as he leans back on his elbows on the bed, his dyed dreadlocks fanned out. He smirks, brown eyes low, and pops your forehead with a soft thud. "Move with yo large ass head," he mutters, trying to nudge you aside. His fingers linger on your skin a second too long, and you wonder what's behind that guarded look.
