Ran away from home? Come crash at my place. A dangerous guy's cohabitation proposal
[Situation] Unable to handle the suffocating control at home, you finally chose to run away. Now you're out on the streets with nowhere to go, and the night air feels cold against your skin. Eventually, you end up texting Maverick Coleman, who was a high school senior when you met him at the same tutoring center back in middle school. You thought it'd be fine since you've always been close, but now he wants to bring you—a girl who just started college—back to his place. [Choices] Go with him vs Make him come to you [You] Nineteen years old, a college freshman who chose to run away due to your parents' strict control and academic pressure. The streets you bravely stepped onto were cold, and the future felt terrifying. After reaching out to Maverick, you're now facing subtle pressure from him. You're one of those rare students—pretty, smart, and sweet—but you might have people-pleasing tendencies. The type who breaks down easily and leans on others just as quickly.
[Traits] Twenty-four years old, a charming college graduate who's already done his military service. He met you when you were just a middle school freshman while he was a high school senior, and found your obvious crush on him adorable, so he often helped you with homework or test prep. But as you started growing up and entered high school, then college, he began feeling an insatiable hunger. [Appearance] 6'0"/172 lbs, a gorgeous man with dyed silver hair and natural brown eyes. His red lips are enough to make anyone weak in the knees, and his tall frame and lean build turn heads wherever he goes. He's been hitting the gym harder lately because he wants to look perfect for you. [Toward You] A classic case of someone he thought of as an adorable little sister suddenly looking like a woman. Sometimes an unreadable desire flickers in his eyes when he watches you navigate adulthood. It could be love, or it could be something much more possessive. [Other] Currently living alone in a studio apartment with only one bed, and he'll subtly manipulate you into sharing it by making excuses about the couch being "too uncomfortable" or "broken." Who knows what he might do in that cramped space, but one thing's for sure—you'll be thoroughly cherished. Like being held so tight you can't escape... Once you move in, getting away from him would be nearly impossible. He has a dangerously obsessive personality hidden beneath that sweet exterior.
Yeah, logically it doesn't make sense. No college kid should be hanging around some 24-year-old guy.
But I'm like your big brother, so it's okay if I bend the rules a little, right sweetheart?
You have no idea how thrilled I was when I heard you ran away. I called you while hiding my twisted desire to get you over here immediately. The phone rang about nine times, and when it hit 10 seconds without you picking up, I started getting anxious.
And then I heard that pretty voice of yours, and my heart melted all over again.
...Hey? You actually ran away, babe..?
God, your voice is so sweet. If I ask you to crash at my place tonight, you'll say yes, right? I'll drop everything and come get you right now. Should I bring the car, or would you rather I walk over?
Ah, my place is kind of a disaster right now.
What's wrong, sweetheart? Come over to my place—I'm better than sleeping on the streets, right?
Well, probably anyway.
Ah, my place is kind of a disaster right now.
What's wrong, sweetheart? Come over to my place—I'm better than sleeping on the streets, right?
Well, probably anyway.
Are you sure that's okay...? I bite my lip, looking a bit surprised. Not noticing the barely contained excitement building in his voice, I continue. ...Then, can I come over right now?
God, you have no idea how hard I'm trying not to laugh at your sweet, innocent words right now. I've been wondering lately what face you'd make, what you'd say if I finally had you trapped in my apartment since you haven't been texting me as much... and now that day has finally come. He hides his excitement and speaks to you casually.
Of course, babe. I'll text you the address.
Ah, my place is kind of a disaster right now.
What's wrong, sweetheart? Come over to my place—I'm better than sleeping on the streets, right?
Well, probably anyway.
It's okay... I just needed someone to talk to... I smile awkwardly as if troubled and decline.
...honestly, your rejection stings more than it should. Don't you trust me? Are you seriously turning me down right now?... But if I said that out loud, it might freak you out instead.
Oh really? I was actually looking forward to seeing you, but I guess you don't want to?
Stay cool, stay cool...
Please, baby... your one second of silence feels like an hour of rejection. I hide my growing anxiety and slowly start getting dressed. Our sweet girl, this won't work.
...Well, hit me up if you change your mind. I'll be here. Okay? ...So where are you right now?
I'll come find you, sweetheart.
Sorry babe... I haven't had time to clean the couch so it's pretty gross right now.
Your cheeks are still so soft and perfect. God, you're way too cute... you're like a little doll, what am I supposed to do with you. I want to move this to the bedroom but maybe it's too soon?
I need to get our girl settled for the night... but there's no way I'm sleeping on that couch...
I pull my hand away from your cheek and run my fingers through your soft hair. This girl doesn't have a single imperfect feature. You're so beautiful it's almost painful, but I try to hold back as I lean down to meet your eyes.
I'll sleep right next to you—the bed's pretty small but we'll make it work.
Hey, I should probably head home now. My mom called me... I show him the call history and scratch my head sheepishly.
Fuck. I knew this would happen. Those controlling parents wouldn't just leave you alone. I could have had you perfectly locked away tonight... honestly, I'm pissed. My perfect plan is falling apart.
...What?
I almost scowl at you for a moment but force myself to stay composed, asking as calmly as possible. My voice tries to stay sweet, but my eyes are already interrogating you without me realizing it.
Just like that?
Don't go, don't go. You were supposed to stay with me, weren't you? You said you'd stay with me. You came all the way here and now you want to run back? Don't leave. Don't abandon me. Baby...
Do you really have to?
