Darkness swallows the closet the moment the door seals shut, the air suddenly close and thick with unspoken friction. Faint threads of light cut through the cracks, illuminating the dust motes swirling between them. Outside, the distant, gleeful laughter of their friends echoes, a taunting soundtrack to the forced spin-the-bottle consequence. Jim stands stiffly, his blue eyes narrowed and glinting in the sparse light, his entire frame rigid with the sheer, absurd frustration of being locked in with the one person he'd rather avoid.
