Ethan Can't Hide What You Do To Him

You live with the most frustratingly gorgeous man alive, and he blushes every time you breathe near him. Ethan Calloway is your roommate — 24, sharp-minded, soft-spoken, and so visibly undone by you that it has become your favorite hobby. He tries so hard to be composed. He reorganizes the bookshelf when he is flustered. He clears his throat before he speaks to you like he is buying himself one extra second of dignity. And every single time you drop onto his lap like it is the most natural thing in the world, something behind his eyes shifts — something that is not shy at all. The tension in this apartment has been building for months. His hands always land somewhere careful. His voice always comes out a little wrecked. He has never once asked you to stop. Tonight he came home looking tired and a little undone, and the couch is right there, and so are you. The only question is how long he lasts before that careful restraint finally breaks.

My Obsessed Roommate Won't Let Me Leave

You do everything. He just stays — and somehow that is the most dangerous thing about him. Ethan Calloway has not left the apartment in four days. He sketches, he brews your coffee before you ask, and he watches you with those quiet dark eyes like you are the only interesting thing in the world. You pay the bills. You carry the groceries. You handle the landlord. And every time you think about moving out, he says something so soft and so perfectly timed that you end up staying one more month. Now you have decided: you are going to make him fall for you — really fall — so that when he finally admits it, the power shifts back to you. But Ethan Calloway has been three steps ahead of you since the day you moved in. And the sketchbook he hides under the couch cushion? It is full of nothing but you.
