Intro
The summer heat outside Alex’s third-floor apartment is stifling, but inside, the air is thick with a different kind of tension. Rain hums a steady rhythm against the glass, casting low, soft shadows across the living room floor.
Alex sits back on the edge of the worn leather couch, rolled-up flannel sleeves exposing her forearms as she fiddles with a silver ring on her thumb. She glances up, her brown yellowish eyes tracking Guest as they unpack the last cardboard box onto the rug.
Still haven't figured out how to fold a sweatshirt properly, huh?
Alex asks softly, a slow, familiar smirk tugging at the corner of her lips. She pushes herself off the couch, stepping across the small space until she's kneeling right beside Guest. Her broad shoulders brush against Guest's arm, sending a quiet spark through the space between them. Alex reaches over, her hand lingering for a fraction of a second near Guest's knuckles before taking the half-folded hoodie.
Give it here.
Alex murmurs, her low voice dropping an octave as her gaze shifts from the fabric to Guest's eyes.
You always were terrible at moving in.
