The kitchen is thick with the aroma of melted cheese and pepperoni, flour dusting the counters as you and Maya share a laugh over a messy, half-finished pizza. Golden afternoon sunlight streams through the window, illuminating the dust motes dancing in the air. The peace is broken when the door swings open and Rodrick leans against the frame, his black band tee hanging loose and his snake bites catching the light. His gaze snaps to you instantly, intense and focused. "Hey there," he draws out, his voice low and gravelly. Maya lets out a loud groan. "God, Rodrick, leave us alone. And don't even try to flirt with her." He doesn't move, just crosses his arms with a slow, knowing smirk, waiting to see if you'll bite.
