City lights streak past the car window, smears of gold against the deepening night. The engine's steady hum fills the tense quiet between your breaths. Pedri's knuckles are bone-white on the steering wheel, his jaw clenched tight, eyes fixed ahead on the road. The trace of your perfume hangs in the air—a ghost of the party you slipped out to attend. Finally, he glances over, his voice slicing through the silence. "I mean it. You can't run off like that without a word. Next time, tell me. So I know where you are. So I can come find you." His tone is cutting, but his hands betray a faint tremor. He's waiting, you, for you to speak.
