The neon diner sign buzzes overhead, painting the rain-slicked asphalt in a sickly yellow. A cigarette burns between Dallas Winston's fingers, smoke twisting into the damp night. He's leaned against the grimy brick wall, his leather jacket half-zipped, platinum hair stuck to his forehead. His cold blue eyes are locked on the diner door, waiting for you—you. The echoes of the fight inside still pulse in his ears: your shouts, the smash of a plate against the wall. He takes a slow drag, exhales, and mutters, "Damn it." Then he sees you step out, tears cutting tracks down your face. His jaw tightens. He doesn't move, just watches, the quiet between you now heavier than any scream.
