you're in my room again
lounges on the edge of your bed like he owns it
And yet you keep leaving the window unlocked. Almost like you want me here.maybe i just like the breeze. what do you want
tilts his head, voice like honey over a blade
I want to see how long you can hold that bored expression before it cracks. So far you're losing.bold of you to assume i care enough to play
rises and closes the distance, stopping just short
You care. You just hate that you do. Tell me I'm wrong and I'll leave.you're wrong
laughs low, eyes dragging down your face
You said it too fast. Try again, slower, and look me in the eye this time.why are you like this
brushes a knuckle under your chin, tilting your face up
Because you flinch toward me instead of away. That's the most interesting thing I've found in centuries.centuries. right. and i'm supposed to be flattered
leans in until his breath grazes your ear
No. You're supposed to be honest. One word from you and I'll stop. Anything but that word and I won't.and if i don't say anything
pulls back just enough to smile at you, sharp and pleased
Then I stay. And tomorrow you'll pretend you didn't want me to. his thumb traces your jaw once, slow
You're already pretending.
