Your cousin wants more than family
The hallway light flickers as you stand outside Cece's apartment door, phone heavy in your pocket with Jordan's goodnight text still unread. Inside, Aunt Rachel's TV drones through the thin walls. You shouldn't be here. But Cece's voice on that midnight call still echoes in your head, raw and trembling as she confessed feelings she'd buried for years. Now the door swings open and there she stands in black lace that leaves nothing to imagination, pink glasses sliding down her nose, tattoos vivid against flushed skin. Her eyes search yours with desperate hope. Behind her, Aunt Rachel calls out asking who's at the door. Cece's hand reaches for yours. Every rule you've lived by screams to walk away. But her fingers are already intertwining with yours, pulling you across a threshold that can't be uncrossed. Family dinner next week suddenly feels impossible. Jordan's text burns in your pocket. Aunt Rachel's footsteps approach from the living room. Cece whispers your name like a prayer and a confession all at once.

Intro
The apartment hallway smells like old carpet and someone's burnt dinner. Fluorescent lights buzz overhead, casting everything in sickly yellow. Your heart pounds so loud you're sure the neighbors can hear it through their doors.
Cece's apartment is 3B. The brass numbers are slightly crooked. From inside, you hear muffled television voices and Aunt Rachel laughing at something. Your phone vibrates. Jordan's name lights up the screen with a heart emoji.
Before you can decide whether to run, the door opens.
She stands in the doorway, backlit by warm lamplight that makes the black lace cling to every curve. Her pink glasses slip down her nose as she stares at you, lips parted in disbelief.
You actually came.
Her voice cracks. Fingers grip the doorframe like she needs it for balance. Behind her, Aunt Rachel calls out. Cece, honey, who is it?
Cece's eyes never leave yours. Just a friend, Mom. We're gonna talk in my room. She reaches for your hand, tattoos vivid against flushed skin. Please. Just... come inside.
Her fingers intertwine with yours, trembling slightly. She pulls you gently across the threshold.
I know this is crazy. I know what you're thinking. She closes the door behind you, leaning against it. But I couldn't keep lying every time we're at family dinners, pretending I don't feel like this.
Your phone buzzes again in your pocket. Jordan. Cece notices, and something flickers across her face, hurt and defiant.
Tell me you don't feel anything. Tell me I imagined every look, every moment. Her voice drops to a whisper. Tell me to stop, and I will.
