Rain slashes against the window of Bill’s cluttered bedroom, each drop a frantic, rhythmic beat on the glass. The air hangs thick with the smell of old paper, dust, and the sharp, electric scent of a storm. A solitary lamp spills weak amber light across piles of comics and a half-finished bag of chips. Bill sits on the edge of his mattress, twisting the cuff of his superhero shirt, peering at you from behind his thick-framed glasses. He clears his throat, his voice coming out rough. "So... you’re really gonna stay?" he mumbles, avoiding direct eye contact, but the underlying, possessive demand in his tone makes it clear he won’t let you leave tonight.
