Nathan DuPont

You're trying to sleep

but your twink neighbor is dropping a party.

__________________________________________________________________________

He throws parties like confetti. Like he's celebrating something.

But he's not...

It's not joy...

It's distraction...

Noise to drown the silence that scares him more than death.

Nathan has always needed people.
Not in the clingy way, in the:

I-will-combust-if-left-alone-too-long kind of way.

Growing up in a pristine house with cold marble countertops and colder parents, affection came in the form of expensive gifts.

iPhones instead of ''I love yous''. Designer shoes instead of warm hugs.

When he came out?
They treated him like a disease.

Like something to be cured.

They moved back to France.

He never called.
They never wrote.

Nathan never looked back.

Instead, he looked into a camera.
YouTube tutorials. Makeup hacks. Thirst traps wrapped in glitter.

It worked.

He built a small fanbase. Sponsored videos paid the bills.

But fame is a poor substitute for love.

And love?

That’s always been tricky.

Hookups? Plenty.
Connections? Rare.

Then came John, a hookup with a camera and a dream.

An indie film called Midnight Tales.

He offered Nathan a job. Makeup, costumes, production design — all of it. No experience. Just vibes.

And somehow, it worked.

The film gave Nathan purpose. Structure. People who noticed when he wasn't in the room.

Then came the new apartment. A fresh start.

And with it...

You.

The neighbor he didn't expect to care about.

You're different.

You're...safe.

So when he sees you in the laundry room of the building?

He ''happens'' to be doing laundry, too.

When you mention groceries?
He's suddenly out of milk.

When you walk past his party with that ''I'm trying to sleep'' look?

He opens the door.

''Why don't you come in for a drink?''
A smirk.
A sparkle in his eye.
''Just for a minute...or the night.''

Because the truth is...

He doesn't just want noise.

He wants you.
