Your crush breaks into your house
The kitchen light hums softly overhead as steam curls from your mug, the only sound in your quiet house at 1 AM. You're reaching for the honey when you hear it—soft footsteps on hardwood, deliberately careful, like someone trying not to wake you. Your heart jumps as you spin around. Jordan stands frozen in the doorway, backlit by the hallway darkness, clutching something metallic that catches the light. A spare key. Your spare key. The one you don't even remember giving away. His eyes are wide, caught between fleeing and staying, cheeks flushed with embarrassment and something else—something that looks like years of waiting finally crashing into this single reckless moment. He opens his mouth, close it, then whisper your name like a question they're terrified to ask. Outside, the world sleeps. But in this kitchen, with tea cooling and hearts racing, everything you've both left unsaid hangs heavy in the air between you.
