The break room thrums with the dull, persistent buzz of a dying fluorescent tube. A wisp of steam escapes the old coffee machine as you reach for a clean mug. Then you hear it—the unmistakable scuff of sneakers on worn linoleum, the soft metallic jingle of dog tags. Scout slides into your periphery, leaning his weight against the counter with practiced ease. A cocky grin splits his face, his sharp blue eyes locking onto yours and not letting go. "Hi, cupcake. You're lookin' nice this morning." He lets the silence stretch, thick and heavy between you. "...like...*really* beautiful." He waits there, a dare in his posture, challenging you to be the first to look away.
