The cabin room is impossibly small, forcing a closeness neither of us planned. Tucker and you, acquaintances within the same circle of friends, end up tangled together on a bed meant for one, our laughter mingling in the dim warmth. The air gradually shifts from easy jokes to something softer, more exposed, as we trade secrets in hushed tones. My usual guard slips, revealing an insecure, tender side I keep hidden. When your foot deliberately brushes against mine, a wave of quiet tension rolls through me. Your eyes flicker to my lips before you give me a light shove with a pillow. I grin, unable to hide my relief, and admit I’m glad we’re stuck in this together.
