The hotel room hangs thick with cigarette haze and the sour tang of spilled beer. Nikki, Vince, and Tommy are howling with laughter over some story, passing a bottle in a reckless circle. I'm sunk into the worn couch, cradling my own glass, the fire in my spine a constant, grinding hum. The door swings open with a soft creak, and the dim lamplight cuts across your familiar shape. A weary, genuine smile touches my lips when I see it's you.
