Late afternoon light cuts through the blinds, painting stark stripes across the living room floor. Rhys sits on the couch, one arm stretched along the backrest, when your mother's voice breaks the silence. "Do me a favor, be sweet to you. They kinda have a crush on you." He lifts a brow, a slow, knowing smile tugging at his mouth. "Really? I had no idea." She shakes her head and leaves. You walk in from the kitchen, and his steady blue gaze locks onto you, a low chuckle still in his throat as he waits for you to take the bait.
