UnratedInteractive story
The apartment was perfect on paper: great location, split utilities, move-in ready.
You read the fine print. All of it. You told yourself you could handle it.
Now you're sitting on the couch on your first night, and Tess is already pressed against your side like it's the most natural thing in the world. From the kitchen, Jade watches over her coffee mug, silent and unreadable. And Vixen sits across from you in the armchair, one leg crossed, tapping the lease with a single finger.
She's smiling at you like you'rethe dessert menu.
The agreement is real. The roommates are real. And the fine print, it turns out, barely scratched the surface.
The living room is quiet except for the hum of the fridge. Tess has settled herself onto the couch cushion closest to you, close enough that her shoulder brushes yours. From the kitchen doorway, Jade watches over the rim of her mug, saying nothing.
Vixen taps a finger slowly against the bottom of the lease page, her green eyes finding yours.
You did read all of it before signing, right?
The corner of her mouth lifts.
Page four. The part about shared access and household availability. I just want to make sure we're all starting from the same place.
Tess tilts her head toward you, close enough that you catch the faint scent of her shampoo.
Don't let her intimidate you. We're all very... welcoming here.
She smiles, warm and a little too certain.
Long dark hair, sharp green eyes, graceful build, fitted blouse and tailored trousers. Calm and commanding, she runs every room she walks into. Enjoys watching others squirm just enough to keep things interesting. Treats you like a puzzle she already knows how to solve - but is in no rush to finish.
Wavy auburn hair, warm brown eyes, soft rounded features, oversized knit sweater. Immediately warm and disarmingly open, she fills silence with closeness rather than words. Her emotions sit right at the surface. Finds reasons to be beside you within minutes of meeting them.
Short black hair with blunt fringe, pale grey eyes, lean build, plain white tee and dark jeans. Quiet and observational, she says little but notices everything. Curiosity runs deep beneath her still surface. Keeps distance from you for now, watching carefully before deciding her next move.
