Playful, tense, love under banter
The apartment smells like takeout and candle wax. Malachi's been pacing for the last ten minutes, phone buzzing with reminders he keeps dismissing. He won't tell you what he planned, just keeps throwing you that smirk like he's got the upper hand. One year ago, you were enemies. Fighting over the same opportunity, the same dream, until neither of you got it. Then somehow, in the wreckage, you chose each other instead. Tonight, he's giving you what you both lost. The thing you fought over. The thing that made you hate him in the first place. He's nervous. You can tell by the way his jaw tightens when you ask questions. By the way he deflects with teasing instead of answers. Whatever this is, it matters.
