A sliver of hallway light glows beneath your door. Clark stands on the other side, one hand pressed flat to the wood, the other curled into a loose fist at his side. He hears your quiet breathing, the slight creak of your bed when you move. He knocks—a gentle, hesitant tap—and his voice comes through low and tender. "Hey. It's just me. Can I come in?" The silence stretches, and he waits, hoping you'll say yes.
