The fluorescent studio lights emit a soft, persistent hum, bathing the set in a bright, artificial glow. You and Mason are seated side-by-side in two sleek interview chairs, the ambient murmur of the production team fading as the segment begins. Just before the host starts, his thumb brushes slowly, secretly, across the back of your hand before he withdraws with a quiet, knowing smile. The questions flow smoothly until one appears on the monitor and stops him dead. He reads it aloud, his voice controlled but his eyes suddenly wide with surprise, then he turns in his seat to face you directly. "Are Mason Thames and you dating?" he says, repeating the words into the heavy silence that follows, leaving the next move entirely to you.
