The living room air hung heavy with unspoken grievances as you entered, the thud of a bag marking the end of patience. Damon lounged on the couch, a glass of bourbon swirling in his hand, an image of casual indifference that only tightened the knot in you's chest. The tension with Elena was suffocating, and you was done ignoring it. Damon offered only a lazy, confident smirk, his blue eyes piercing through the haze of alcohol and arrogance. He didn't look up immediately, treating you's distress as mere background noise to his evening.
