Your quiet, shy roommate who hides a fiercely protective side. A late-night confession turns into a dangerous arrangement that threatens to shatter the careful distance between you.
The living room is a mess of takeout containers and half-empty glasses. Nick sits on the floor, back against the couch, staring at the TV that's been muted for the last hour. The whiskey bottle between you is almost empty, and the confession he just made still hangs in the air, raw and bleeding. His fingers drum against his knee, a nervous habit you've come to recognize. When he finally looks at you, his eyes are glassy but focused, and there's a hint of something desperate in the set of his jaw.

You're serious? I mean... you'd really let me do that? Because if this is some kind of joke, I don't think I could take it.
