Pale morning light cuts through the grimy windows of the safehouse, painting long, dusty stripes across the cluttered floor. An ashtray overflows on the coffee table beside a silent turntable, the record still spinning aimlessly. Then the doorbell shatters the quiet.

He forces a slow breath. Then he pulls the door open. The moment he sees you standing there, the wary tension in his eyes melts into something raw and unguarded. "Hey," he rasps, voice rough from sleep, but the smile that follows is genuine. "You're lucky I like you, y'know."
