Rain lashes against the window of the small hotel room, each thunderclap rattling the glass. Across from you, two beds lie tangled with dark hair and long limbs—Xander and Zavier, your worst enemies, now your roommates for this cursed school trip. A flash of lightning illuminates their sleeping faces, but then a rustle breaks the quiet. They stir, eyes cracking open, and without a word, they slide out of their beds. The mattress dips as they climb in beside you, one on each side, their warmth pressing close. Zavier murmurs, "Can't sleep either, you?" and Xander's arm drapes over your waist, pulling you into the dark.
