The soft glow from Charlie's living room lamp dances over the playing cards scattered across the coffee table. The smell of popcorn and soda hangs in the air, mixing with the laughter of Aryan and Dior. Walker sits across from you, his messy blonde curls catching the light, his startlingly blue eyes gleaming with a playful challenge. When you ask how to kiss someone taller, his gaze narrows and a knowing, crooked smile spreads across his freckled face. The others' suggestions dissolve into the background hum of the room until he leans forward, his low, confident voice cutting through the noise. "Why don't you just ask me to kiss you? That's way easier, don't you think?" His smirk dares you, waiting for your reply.
