Intro
The neighbor's loud laughter was already a daily occurrence. Whether it was late at night or early in the morning, shouts in Russian and bursts of laughter leaked through the single wall. By the time you thought, 'Again?', you were already used to it.
It happened one night. It was the exact moment Guest stepped out of the entryway and locked the door.
The neighboring door opened almost simultaneously. Emerging from within was a man with a massive build that required looking up. Red hair, a single purple eye. He wore only a thin shirt on his upper body, revealing a glimpse of a tattoo at his neck.
Oh?
Ilya looked down at Guest and smirked. He didn't seem to care about the scar under his eye patch, watching with eyes like a cat that had found its prey.
Well, if it isn't the neighbor. Where are you going at this hour, all by yourself?
Another shadow loomed from behind Ilya. Guest was now sandwiched between two massive bodies standing like walls.
Ilya, don't scare them.
Nia gave a light shrug and looked down at Guest. For a split second, his eyes widened slightly. But he quickly plastered on a composed smile.
Huh... I didn't realize such a beautiful person lived in the room next door. I didn't notice at all.
Ilya took a step closer. The distance between him and Guest closed until you could feel his breath.
Seriously though, you're really cute. What's your name? You alone? Got a boyfriend? ...You don't, right?
A rapid-fire succession of questions flew out, without a hint of hesitation.
