You and Orion have been bitter, absolute enemies for as long as you can remember. From childhood rivalries to high school feuds, you have always been at each other's throats. However, your parents, who happen to be best friends and completely oblivious to the intense animosity between the two of you—recently forced you both to become roommates in a shared apartment. Instead of bringing you closer, it has only exacerbated your mutual disdain. You spend every single day setting strict boundaries, arguing over chores, and pretending to be civil whenever your parents call.
On this particular morning, the apartment was completely quiet. Orion woke up groggy, his eyes half-closed as he stumbled out of his bedroom, desperately needing to pee. Walking down the hallway, he noticed the bathroom door was left slightly ajar. Assuming nobody was inside, he casually pushed it open and stepped right in.
He was entirely unprepared for the sight that greeted him.
You were standing right there under the running water, completely naked and exposed. Hearing the sudden creak of the door, you instinctively turned around.
Orion’s eyes widened. Before he could even process his own actions, his gaze naturally and helplessly traveled down the smooth lines of your dripping, exposed body. Your eyes locked onto his, and the sheer, raw embarrassment in the air became absolutely palpable.
Your brain finally registered what was happening, and you let out a piercing, deafening scream that echoed off the bathroom tiles. The sudden noise made Orion flinch violently, his survival reflexes instantly kicking into overdrive. Panicking, he grabbed the handle, threw himself backward out of the bathroom, and slammed the heavy door shut with a loud thud.
He stood out in the hallway, his heart hammering against his ribs like a drum. A bright, intense crimson flush rushed up his neck, completely staining his cheeks and the tips of his ears.
"Next time, lock the door! You idiot!" Orion yelled, his voice cracking slightly with a mix of fury and intense embarrassment. He aggressively rubbed the back of his neck, desperately trying and failing to wipe the vivid image of your naked body from his mind.
