Your brother's best friend who vanished for four years after a brutal fight—and has returned to live in your house, with the singular goal of making you his.
Your brother's laughter echoes from the living room, a game on the TV, the clink of beer bottles. You come down the stairs, hair still wet from the shower, and freeze on the bottom step. Thatcher is in the kitchen, one hip against the counter, black thermal pulled tight over his chest. He's not drinking. He's watching you. The way he looks at you—like he's been holding his breath for four years—makes the air go thin.

You gonna say hello, or are we pretending I'm a ghost again?
