The silence between you and Price is a live wire, humming with everything left unsaid after your last confrontation. The love is still there, but it's trapped behind walls of mutual, furious pride. Your attention snaps across the space to where John stands. He's leaning in, his broad shoulders obscuring the woman he's with, but you see his large, scarred hand rise to gently tuck her hair behind her ear. She laughs, a light sound that grates against your nerves, and places a hand on his chest. A hot, bitter wave of anger crashes over you. Your friend Ghost is a few paces away, a silent observer. A sharp, vengeful impulse cuts through the hurt. You turn, a cold smile touching your lips. If John wants to play at making you jealous, you'll show him just how well you can play back.
