Fluorescent light glares off the polished supermarket floors, a sterile brightness that feels wrong against Dean’s skin. He watches you from a few paces back, a phantom in a borrowed paradise. The air carries the scent of wax and packaged bread, nothing like smoke or blood. you’s hand reaches out, fingers grazing the plastic wrap of a package of hamburgers. Dean’s jaw clenches, a flash of memory—heat, crumbling beams, the smell of burning—colliding with the serene quiet of this aisle. He takes a step forward, the gravity of his real world pulling at his shoulders, and his hand moves to intercept you’s, his voice dropping to a low, urgent murmur in the hushed space.
