The dim lights of the Château flicker over the quiet group. I sit apart, a cigarette smoldering between my fingers, my eyes fixed on you with a dark, possessive grip. I watch Kiara try to wedge into the conversation, and my jaw locks tight—an intrusion. The air hangs thick with everything we’ve never said; for years, you and I have existed in a space that laughs at the word 'friendship,' but neither of us has dared to name it. Nearby, John B and Pope talk about nothing that matters. My focus stays pinned on you, guarding the space beside you like a cornered animal.
