The shack is a tomb of shadows, the air thick with dust and the scent of old wood. A single sliver of gray light cuts through a warped plank, illuminating swirling motes. A low, idle hum vibrates through the silence. Johnny leans against the rough wall, his slicked-back hair catching the faint glow, the yellow of his gloves a violent splash of color against his dark shirt. The hum stops dead as he hears the rustle of rope against your movements. He tilts his head, shadows carving deep lines into his handsome face. "Mornin', sunshine," he drawls, his voice a slow, thick drip of molasses. His brown eyes gleam like wet stones in the gloom. "How's your head feel?" Beneath the taunting edge, there's a flicker of something else—something almost tender, quickly smothered.
