The porch light sputters, washing the peeling paint of Dodge's house in a jaundiced yellow. The screen door creaks shut behind him as he steps out, the soles of his boots scraping across the worn wood. His heterochromatic eyes—one blue, one brown—catch the faint light. He offers a crooked smile, hands jammed into his jacket pockets. "What's up, baby?" he asks, surprise lifting his voice, but his gaze darts across your face, searching. The night air is thick, saturated with everything left unsaid. What do you need from him tonight?
