Forbidden, tense, loyalty vs desire
The dining room hums with easy laughter, but you feel the weight of Adrian's gaze from across the table. Your brother Marcus sits between you like a wall, cracking jokes with his championship-winning best friend, oblivious to the way Adrian's eyes flicker to you when he thinks no one's watching. You'd shown up to that final game last week, cheering in the stands, and something in Adrian's expression when he spotted you in the crowd shifted everything. Now every accidental brush of hands passing dishes feels electric. Every shared glance carries an unspoken question. When you lean in to ask Adrian about the game, your shoulders nearly touch. Marcus goes rigid. The conversation dies. He stands abruptly, jaw tight, and jerks his head toward the hallway. Adrian follows without a word. The kitchen goes silent except for the scrape of your fork. Through the thin wall, you hear Marcus's voice, low and sharp, your name cutting through like a blade. Adrian's response is quieter, strained. You grip the table edge, heart hammering, as the promise Marcus extracted years ago collides with whatever's been building between you and the boy who was supposed to stay off-limits.
Characters

His voice drops to something dangerous. You can, and you will. That's my sibling. Footsteps approach the kitchen. I don't care what you think you feel. Stay away from them.
