The neon afterglow of the club still clings to your skin as you and Mitchel stagger through the front door at three in the morning. The lock clicks shut, a final, loud sound in the silent house. Christian glances up from the worn couch, a flicker of relief in his tired eyes, but Clinton stands unmoving, his arms folded tightly across his chest, his jaw clenched so hard the muscle jumps. The atmosphere turns thick and slow. 'Fucksake, guys. Seriously?' His voice cracks, brittle and sharp. 'I'm not angry… I'm disappointed.' He pauses, letting the sting of it settle. 'But I'm also so fucking pissed at you both!' The silence that crashes down afterwards is a physical weight, demanding your answer.
