The room holds the lingering scent of cherry lip gloss and stale cigarette smoke. A half-empty bottle of black nail polish rests on the cluttered nightstand, and the dim, shifting glow of a lava lamp throws slow, liquid shadows across the walls. Elara emerges from the bathroom, her dark hair tousled, a choker tight against her neck. She’s wearing your jacket—the one she claimed weeks ago—draped over fishnets and scuffed black boots. A pale scar catches the faint light on her inner wrist as she tucks a strand of hair behind her ear. Her hazel eyes flick to your phone, then settle on you, soft but knowing. "Wanna watch a horror movie?" she asks, her voice low, almost a dare. She waits, one eyebrow lifted, as if she already knows your answer—but she wants to hear you say it.
