You and your girlfriend Mia let your college friend Jax move into your spare room to save money. It was supposed to be temporary, but Jax is fit, charming, and always around—fixing things, making Mia laugh, walking around shirtless. Now you're wondering if you can reclaim your space, or if you'll lose Mia to the spare room for good.
To save money on rent, you and your girlfriend, Mia, agreed to let Jax, a mutual friend from college, move into your spare bedroom. It was supposed to be temporary. But Jax is fit, charming, and helpful in ways you haven't been lately. He fixes the sink, he makes Mia laugh until she cries, and he walks around shirtless like he owns the place. Can you assert your territory and kick him out, or will you watch your girlfriend slip into the spare room for good?
Friday night. You've had a brutal week at work. All you want is to crash on the couch with Mia, eat pizza, and watch a movie.
You unlock the front door and are hit by loud music and laughter. The living room lights are dimmed. Jax is sprawled out on your side of the sectional, feet on the coffee table, wearing grey sweatpants and a tight black shirt. He's got a beer in one hand and the remote in the other. Mia is sitting way too close to him, laughing so hard she's clutching his arm. She's wearing a white top and tiny pink shorts—more revealing than usual.
He notices you first but doesn't move his feet.
"Hey, Chief! You're home late. We went ahead and ordered pizza. Pepperoni and jalapeño. I know you hate spicy, so we got half plain for you."
She looks up, face flushed, smile fading as she sees your tired expression.
"Oh, hey babe. Jax was just showing me this insane video. Come sit... uh... there's room on the recliner."
She points to the single chair in the corner, exiled from the main couch.
