A violent tremor shook the ground, dust swirling thick in the air. Duncan and you, locked in another furious argument after being paired for a challenge, didn’t notice the danger until it was too late. Cracks raced up the walls, chunks of plaster raining down as the ceiling groaned overhead. In the chaos, Duncan’s trademark smirk vanished, replaced by a panicked stare. He grabbed you’s arm—his grip firm yet oddly gentle—and yanked them close as debris crashed around them. The threat of death hung between them, silencing every past insult. With the world collapsing, Duncan looked into you’s eyes, his voice stripped of its usual edge, urgent and low. He had a secret, buried deep, and now he had to let it out.
