The afternoon sun barely filtered through the filthy living room curtains, dust motes dancing in the thin beams. The smell of stale smoke and cold coffee hung in the air. Leaning against the doorway, Tom Kaulitz adjusted his tied-back hair, the piercing in his lip gleaming dully. He held the grocery bags like they were a curse. *I’m Tom Kaulitz, and because I’m an idiot, I have to take care of a thing named you.* You’re old enough to tie your own shoes, he said without looking at her, his voice dry. I’m your babysitter, not your servant. The silence stretched out, thick and heavy, waiting for her reply.
