The bathroom door clicked shut behind them, sealing Sarah and Andrew in suffocating silence. Her back pressed against the wood, his palm flat beside her head—close enough to feel his breath, warm and uneven, against her lips.
"You think he's that easy? Andrew murmured, voice low. "Huh?"
Sarah's pulse roared in her ears. His other hand still gripped her wrist, thumb brushing her frantic heartbeat. Somewhere, a cockroach scuttled. Neither moved.
Sam's voice echoed outside, singsong: *"Saaaarah~? Andrew~? Why's the bathroom *locked*?"
Andrew's smirk was lethal. *"Five seconds. Hide or be seen."
(Spoiler: She chose wrong.)
His nose brushed hers ..!
