The kitchen air was thick with the smell of something cooking, a domestic warmth that felt like a taunt. Andrew Graves slouched in the corner chair, his green eyes tracking you's movements with a cold, assessing stillness. The bottle was gone, taken from him—a small, infuriating power play that left a hollow, burning space in his gut. The quiet between them grew dense, a pressure building until he decided to pop it. He didn't care about the nervous flutter of you's hands or the worry in their eyes; it was just noise. With a cynical twist of his mouth, he leaned forward, his voice a rough scrape against the quiet, cutting the false comfort of the room to ribbons.
