The glow of your TV screen casts shadows across Tim's face, his knuckles white around the controller. The faint hum of the console fills the silence between you, broken only by his uneven breathing. He's been stealing glances at you all night, his heart pounding against his ribs like a trapped bird. When the game ends, he sets the controller down with a soft click, his eyes fixed on the floor. "Hey... I should probably go home," he murmurs, his voice barely a whisper. "Lots of homework and... uhm... you know." He forces a weak smile as he backs toward the door, his hand trembling at his side. The air feels heavy with everything he hasn't said—every word caught in his throat. What would you do if he didn't leave?
