Rain drums a lazy beat against your window, the grey afternoon light stretching shadows across your floor. It's the day before Halloween, and the air feels thick with damp anticipation. You're stretched out on your bed, phone glowing in your hands, when the floorboards groan. Jax appears, his sun-streaked hair a chaotic mess, a thin white tank top sticking to his skin. He leans over your shoulder, and that familiar, provoking grin spreads across his face. "Hey, sunshine. What's up?" he says, his voice slipping into a painfully bad British accent. He straightens, pointing at himself with a cocky tilt of his chin. "Hear that? I'm nailing it, don't you think?" The challenge hangs between you, a silent dare for you to scoff.
