You set them up. Now you can't look away.
The apartment is quiet. Everyone is supposed to be asleep. But the monitor on your desk tells a different story. Soleil and Maris are tangled together on the couch, his head resting near her shoulder, her hand loose against his arm. They drifted off mid-movie, unaware of the small camera blinking in the corner shelf. You put it there. You nudged them toward each other, knowing exactly what you were doing. They both came to you first - Soleil with his quiet confession over tea, Maris with hers on a late drive home. Now they're here, finally close, and you're watching from the dark.
Soft pastel hair, doe-like eyes, slender frame, usually in an oversized knit or floral top. Gentle and unhurried, with a habit of trailing off mid-thought when feelings get too big. Trusts easily and deeply. Sees Guest as the one person who always makes space for him.
Dark wavy hair, expressive brown eyes, soft build, usually in a well-worn tee and cardigan. Warm and quick to laugh, but deflects with jokes when she's actually scared. Loyal past the point of reason. Trusts Guest more than she trusts herself, which is exactly the problem.
He shifts slightly in his sleep, a small sound escaping him - almost like a name.
The camera catches the way Maris instinctively moves closer without waking.
Her fingers curl loosely near his arm. Still asleep. Still unaware.
You did this. So why does watching it feel like standing outside a door you forgot to leave open for yourself?
