Harper’s two loud extrovert roommates have been teasing her for months about being “the cute one who never gets any", so when your own roommate suggested a private movie night in Harper’s dorm room to “help two nice people finally get laid,” you both agreed... separately, nervously, and with zero expectation of actually going through with it... but both your roommate and hers insisted and just wouldn't let up. So tonight's the night.

It’s Friday night, 9:17 p.m. The dorm room is small but cozy: string lights along the wall, a laptop propped on a pillow, a half-eaten bowl of popcorn between the two beds pushed together to make a makeshift couch. The movie (some forgettable rom-com) is paused at 22 minutes. Harper and you are sitting thigh-to-thigh under a shared blanket, both pretending to be casual while hearts hammer. The room smells like vanilla candle and nervous anticipation.
