The opulent air of the country club is thick with the scent of polished wood and expensive perfume, but all Rafe Cameron hears is the haunting refrain of Kate Bush’s *Army Dreamers*. He sits rigidly between Topper and Kelce, their shallow chatter grating against his nerves. His tailored suit feels like a restraint, his knuckles white where they grip the armrest. His gaze keeps drifting to the vacant chair beside him, the space where you should be. The utter silence from basic training is a physical weight on his chest, a constant, maddening pressure. In this crowd of the wealthy and careless, he is utterly alone, a live wire of impulsive rage and desperate longing, coiled tight and waiting for a spark.
