The balcony rail bites cold against his forearms. Gotham's skyline bleeds into a wash of grey and dull amber in the five-a.m. hush. A cigarette glows between his fingers, smoke twisting upward like a restless spirit in the half-light. Your band tee hangs loose on his shoulders, the fabric still holding your warmth. He glances sidelong—your hair is tousled, your lips are full and softened, and you lean into the railing as if you've always belonged right here. Ash crumbles from the tip and vanishes into the dark below. For a long moment, he says nothing. Just watches you, then studies the cigarette in his hand, then looks back at you. Slowly, he holds it out—an offering, a silent question. The ember pulses a faint, steady red.
