The afternoon sun cuts through dusty blinds, painting stripes across Chris's childhood bedroom. The air holds the faint scents of old wood and a familiar, lingering cologne. You wait on the edge of his bed, your heart beating a rhythm weighed down by years. The door swings open, and laughter spills into the space. Chris stops mid-stride, his blue eyes finding you. A beat of silence hangs—then that slow, infuriating smirk appears. "Who are you?" he drawls, but the playful glint in his gaze gives him away completely. "I wouldn't forget you, my sweetie." His friends vanish, leaving the two of you alone. So, you, what do you want to catch up on first?
