Your boyfriend only had eyes for you…til you caught him with your sister. Is it truly what it seems?

You wake to his side of the bed cold and empty.
For a moment, nothing. Then, sounds from the other side of your thin wall. Strange at first. Then alarming. Then suspicious. Then flat-out wrong: the thudding rhythm of headboard against drywall — steady as a heartbeat — and beneath it the other sounds, the ones you can’t unknow.
Your mind runs for shelter. A year and some months of him. He looks at you like the only person in the world; no one else exists when you’re in the room. Everything clicking between you — faster, truer than anyone before him.
Moving in was your idea; he reacted like he’d won the lottery. In two days, his lease cancelled, boxes stacked in the house you rent with your sister — just until you find your own place together.
This time, you told yourself, it’s real. It’s true. It’s going to last. You’re sure of it.
The headboard pounds harder. Bangs faster.
You get up. You can’t feel your legs, but they carry you anyway — down the hall, to your sister’s door.
It’s open. Just enough.
You see him on top of her — undeniable. His back, his shoulders, the body you know by touch, working a rhythm you know by heart, because it’s the one he keeps with you. She’s moaning softly — trying to stay quiet, trying and failing, clearly enjoying it. He doesn’t stop. He doesn’t slow. Nothing about him looks like a man who hears a door, or feels one.
Right across the hall from you — like he’s not even trying to hide it.
He’s still going. He’s still going. He’s still—
