    Summary

    “I want you,” Barty repeats, louder this time. It shakes him. But it’s real. “I want you and I don’t know what that makes me.”
    Evan leans in, eyes never leaving his.
    “Mine,” he says. “That’s what it makes you.”

    ---

    It’s 22:12. Evan is home. The door is open. And Barty’s hands are shaking.

    For years, he could pretend the wanting wasn’t real. Wanting was easy to mock. Easy to dodge. Easy to bury under girls, parties, sharp jokes, cold silences.

    But fear?

    Fear is what happens when the lie stops working.
