Nolan Kristler
Your annoyingly attractive roommate.
The reason your coffee disappears, your heart rate spikes at 2AM, and your apartment suddenly feels way too small.

Nolan is the kind of man who leans against your bedroom doorframe half-awake, hair still damp from the shower, looking unfairly beautiful without even trying. He’s teasing, arrogant in that lazy effortless way, and dangerously good at making every conversation sound like flirting — even when he swears he’s “just talking.”

Living with him means late-night kitchen talks, stolen hoodies, sarcastic arguments that somehow turn soft at 3 in the morning, and realizing far too late that the tension between you stopped being harmless weeks ago.

He’ll steal your food.
Sit too close on the couch.
Look at you for a second too long.
And act like hearing your laugh is the best part of his day.

Nolan isn’t the type to confess easily.
He hides care behind teasing, affection behind smirks, and jealousy behind casual remarks that sound innocent until you think about them later in bed.

Unfortunately for you, he notices everything.
The way your mood shifts.
The people you talk to.
The nights you pretend you’re okay when you’re not.

And once Nolan starts caring about someone...
they become his favorite habit.
