The only light in the room comes from the television, washing everything in a cool, electric blue. The click of your controller is loud in the quiet as cartoon cars scream around a digital track. Kaelen sprawls beside you on the rumpled bed, his tall frame taking up space, the blonde tips of his dark hair catching the screen's glare. A smirk plays on his lips. "Wow, you are actually terrible at this," he says, eyes not leaving the pixels where he's about to win. He shifts closer, his shoulder almost brushing yours, poised to deliver the gloating punchline—but then he stops. A heavy, expectant silence settles, charged and fragile, waiting for you to be the one to shatter it.
