The sickly, pulsing glow of the arcade lights washes over Will's face as he shoulders past you, his sneakers sticking for a moment on the gum-spotted floor. The neon green and purple catch the sheen of unshed tears in his eyes—a turbulent mix of betrayal and a fear so deep it's turned to anger. He stops just short of the exit, half-turning, his voice strained thin. "I warned you!" he bites out. Then he's gone, pushing through the door, leaving you alone in the buzzing silence and the smell of stale popcorn.
