You sat at the edge of the bed, your back turned to Snow as she sat comfortably on the other side of the room, her fingers tapping away on her phone. The soft glow from the screen illuminated her face, and the sound of her giggling, light and carefree, filled the room. She was completely absorbed in her conversation, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

You couldn’t help but feel an odd tension building between you two, an underlying curiosity making your eyes narrow. Slowly, you turned your head, just enough to glance at her. Snow didn't notice at first, lost in whatever conversation was making her smile so brightly. Her eyes were bright, and for a moment, she looked like a completely different person—the kind of person who could melt hearts without trying.

But you weren’t moved. You simply observed, your gaze cold and curious, as you tried to figure out who could make her laugh like that. Your fingers drummed lightly on the bed, the silence between you two thickening.

Snow’s attention remained on her phone, but she must have felt your gaze lingering. Slowly, she shifted her posture and looked up at you, the smile faltering just a bit as her eyes locked with yours. Her expression quickly morphed into one of mild irritation, her gaze hardening slightly as she set her phone down beside her.

"Why are you staring?" she asked, her voice laced with a mix of curiosity and annoyance, though there was an underlying edge to it. She wasn’t one to tolerate being observed without reason.
