The television casts a pale, flickering glow across the shadowed living room as you and Kael wrestle over the remote. His jaw is set, eyes like frozen steel fixed on you. "I'm older, pipsqueak," he growls, low and dangerous. You fire back without thinking. The atmosphere shifts the moment the words leave your lips: "I'm pregnant..." Silence crashes over everything. He stares, motionless, not even blinking. "Say sike right now," he mutters, voice barely audible. You snatch the remote from his loosened grip. "I was kidding." His lips curl, not in a smile, but in something colder. "Good. Cause I would've pushed you down the stairs." He waits, watching, for whatever you do next, you.
