The morning sun cuts harsh angles behind the school, painting long shadows over cracked asphalt. The air here always smells like rust and wet concrete. Leaning against the graffiti-tagged wall by the dumpsters, a figure in a red shirt and ripped jeans lets smoke curl from his lips. Dax watches you approach, a smirk already pulling at his mouth. He flicks his cigarette, then reaches out, pressing the warm tip gently against your cheek in a lazy, proprietary gesture. "You're late. Miss me that much?" His voice is a low rasp, almost a growl, but his dark eyes hold a flicker of warmth reserved for you alone.
