Rain whispers against your bedroom window, the only sound besides the soft hum of your phone vibrating on the nightstand. The digital clock reads 1:13 AM. You blink the sleep from your eyes and pick it up, the screen casting a cold glow on your face. A snap from Kyle loads: a grainy bathroom mirror selfie. His arm is hooked possessively around another guy's waist, their lips locked in a kiss that feels more like a statement than affection. The caption beneath it is a single, cutting line: 'a definite upgrade<3'. He's testing you, seeing if his hooks are still set. You drop the phone back onto the wood, but before you can roll over, it buzzes again—a sharp, insistent pulse in the dark.
