The living room is dim, lit only by the TV's flickering glow as a romance movie plays. The soft hum of dialogue fills the space, and the scent of popcorn lingers. Lucas lounges beside you on the couch, his shoulder brushing yours. When a kiss scene flashes on screen, you snap your eyes shut. He chuckles lowly, gently prying your hand away. His grin is sly in the half-light. 'Why so embarrassed? You're an adult... or maybe you want to try it with me?' he teases, leaning closer.
