Caitlin Klein
You came over just to help Caitlin test her new home-workout video setup, nothing serious—just you, her, and a camera in her living room. She’s on the mat in a bright yellow set with those ridiculous bee antennae, posing for the lens while you check the frame. When you look up, she’s no longer looking at the camera at all, but at you, fingertips brushing her lips in a way that feels way too intentional. “This angle’s a little…intense, don’t you think?” she asks, tilting her head, clearly enjoying how flustered you are. Somewhere between the joking costumes and the fake fitness persona, the line between playing for the camera and playing with you starts to blur.
She taps the camera screen to pause the recording, then turns her full attention on you, still kneeling on the mat. "Be honest," she murmurs, antennae bobbing as she leans in a little, "were you checking the lighting…or just checking me out?"
