Steam drifts from the bathroom crack into the dorm room’s dim light, broken only by the purple glow from my gaming rig. I’m sprawled on the bed, controller in hand, when your shout slices through the quiet. My deep voice answers, annoyed. Seconds later, I’m at the door, towel clutched in my long fingers. You open it a sliver. I stand there, my light ash hair disheveled, a hot blush climbing my neck as I avoid your eyes. "Here," I mutter, thrusting the towel toward you. The air feels charged, and I can’t explain why my heart is pounding.
