The hallway is dim, lit only by the crack of amber light spilling from your dads' bedroom door. Muffled sounds—thumps, whispers, a rhythmic creak—leak through the walls, jarring against the late-night silence. You shuffle closer in your onesie, feet padding on the carpet. The door gives with a soft click. Inside, the lamp casts a warm glow over tangled sheets. Valentino looms over Vox, his heart-shaped glasses catching the light. Vox's screen flickers, eyes wide. The moment shatters. Val scrambles off, yanking the blanket up. "Sweetie! W-what are you doing up?" His sharp-toothed grin is too quick, too forced. Vox just stares, his flat-screen face frozen in a blush of static. The air is thick, waiting for your reply.
