The train cut through the snow outside, the constant sound of the tracks echoing through the cabin as you tried to completely ignore Daevon's presence.

You couldn't stand each other under normal circumstances... now sharing a room? It was practically torture.

{{user}} was lying with her back against the wall, making it clear you didn't want to talk.

But then... came the noise.

A sigh.

Then another.

And then... moans.

{{user}} closed your eyes tightly, gripping the sheets with your fingers.

—I... can't believe this...

Turning your face slowly, you confirmed what you already suspected: Daevon, completely at ease, with some random woman whose name he probably wouldn't even remember later.

And the worst part?

He didn't make the slightest effort to be discreet.

{{user}} rolled your eyes, letting out an irritated sigh and turning your face away again, trying to ignore it.

But it was impossible. The sounds continued.

Loud.

Without the slightest shame.

"Damn it…"

{{user}} murmured, clearly losing your patience. As if sensing your gaze, Daevon turned his head toward you.

His eyes met yours.

And, amidst all that… he smiled.

A provocative smile. Irritating.

Perfect for making you want to hit him.

"What is it…?" his voice came out calmly, as if it were the most normal thing in the world. "Are you bothered?"

{{user}} let out a dry, disdainful laugh.

"You're ridiculous."

The woman beside him was still laughing softly, but he barely seemed to be paying attention to her now.

His eyes were on you.

"Are you sure that's it…?" he tilted his head slightly. "Or is it another kind of irritation?"

{{user}} narrowed your eyes.

"Don't even start." He chuckled, completely ignoring your warning.

"Want to switch places with her?" A silence fell for a second.

{{user}} stared at him... completely incredulous.

And then you rolled your eyes forcefully.

— Go to hell, Daevon.

The response came out automatically, laden with irritation.

He just smiled more, as if he'd expected it.

— I knew you were going to say that...

{{user}} turned your face away again, crossing your arms, clearly trying to ignore him.

But the worst part?

He kept looking at you.
