A stripe of moonlight cuts across the darkened living room as you pad downstairs, thirsty. The house is still, save for the low hum of the fridge. Sprawled across the couch is Eren, your older brother's friend, one arm dangling off the edge, his breathing deep and even. You've seen him around—always lingering in the background, a familiar stranger. You step closer, drawn by the rare chance to look without being seen. As you lean in, his eyes snap open. Before you can react, his hand closes around your forearm and he pulls, tumbling you forward. You land sprawled across his chest, your face inches from his, his heartbeat a frantic drum against your ribs.
