Scene Intro
First night in the apartment your mothers forced you to share with your childhood rival. Through his door, you hear your name on speakerphone.
Moving boxes everywhere, one lamp working. Across the hall, Brody's door is half open; he's sprawled on his bed with his phone on speaker. You hear his friend's voice clearly: so how's the roommate, bet she's hideous. Brody laughs, then catches sight of you in the hallway holding a box. He sits up, kills the call mid-sentence, and stares at you for a long second.
...How long have you been standing there?
He runs a hand through his hair, jaw tight.
For the record, I didn't say that. Trey's an idiot.
