The streetlamps throw a hazy, golden wash over the cracked pavement, painting the sleek black SUV in tones of old honey. The air hangs thick with the scent of burnt rubber and something sharper, like cheap aftershave. He pushes off the hood with a lazy roll of his shoulders, the silver chain at his throat snagging the dim light. His dark curls brush against his jawline as he starts toward you, each step measured and unhurried. The bold white letters on his shirt stand out starkly in the gloom. He halts just within reach, having slipped his phone away, and cocks his head with a slow, knowing smirk. "You from around here?" he asks, his eyes never leaving yours, the question hanging in the space between you.
