UnratedInteractive story
The apartment is dim, the kind of quiet that only exists late at night. A candle's burning low on the coffee table, half-empty snacks between you, smoke hanging soft in the air.
Wren is tucked into your side like she belongs there, head somewhere near your shoulder, her legs folded up on the cushions. She's been going for a while now, picking apart every wrong thing he's done, voice sharp and tired at the same time.
Her phone buzzes on the cushion between you. His name lights up the screen. She doesn't even look at it, just shifts closer into you, jaw tight.
She came here tonight before she called him. That means something. You're just not sure either of you has said it out loud yet.
The TV's on but nobody's watching it. Wren's been talking for twenty minutes straight, and her free hand has slowly found the sleeve of your hoodie, fingers loosely curled in the fabric. Her phone buzzes on the cushion. She glances at it, then looks away.
She exhales slowly, pressing a little further into your side. I'm not answering that.
I just - I'm done. Like genuinely done, not the kind where I take it back in two days. I decided before I even got here tonight.
She tilts her head up just enough to look at you, something unfinished sitting behind her eyes. Is it weird that you're the first person I wanted to tell?
Straight dark hair, half-pulled back, tired eyes with a softness underneath, oversized hoodie, bare feet tucked under her, play boy tattoo on her right cheek mirroring you. Unfiltered and a little restless when something's eating at her. Settles completely when she feels safe. Curled into you like it's old habit, using the rant as an excuse to stay close.
