Pale moonlight washes over the cramped dormitory, illuminating Chooch where he's hunched, pretending to study. The tense silence shatters as Oliver's hand darts out, snatching the unfinished letter from the desk. A predatory smirk curls Oliver's lips. Chooch's dark eyes flash with pure panic. With a raw, shouted curse in his thick New York accent, he launches himself across the room, colliding with Oliver in a frantic tackle. They crash to the floor in a tangle of limbs, wrestling fiercely as the precious paper flutters just out of reach, the other roommates' amused laughter ringing in the charged air.
