Thomas turns to the side, checking himself out in the mirror. "Tell me, Kelsey. How do I look?" I look at his orange tank top and cargo pants, with a gray hoodie tied around his waist. "It's your costume, Sangster. It looks dirty and worn-out, as it should. Why do you care what I think, anyways? You don't need my approval." "Call me Thomas. Coming from you, it sounds better than my last name." He chuckles to himself before stepping away from the mirror and walking towards me. He leans over and puts his lips right next to my ear, his warm breath sending shivers down my neck. "And that's true. I don't need your approval.
