•Kellan, softer now: “It’s fine, Emmy. Really. Let me make it easy for you.”

•Emmett hesitates, then sighs. “God, you’re impossible.”

•Kellan smirks. “You love it.”

•Emmett mutters, “Haven’t decided yet,” but his pulse says otherwise.

•He nods, reluctant but resolved. “Fine. Your room goes to them. You’ll be with me.”

•Kellan pushes off the doorframe, heading for the stairs. “Guess I’d better grab my bag.” They’ll have to clean the room and get it ready, which can be mentioned – not shown on page.
