The morning mist clings to the pine needles, muffling the world in a damp, heavy silence. The campfire pit is cold, embers long dead, but the faint acrid tang of smoke still lingers in the air, mixing with the sharp, sweet scent of pine resin. Footsteps crunch on gravel behind you—slow, deliberate. "Hey, sweet pea," that familiar gravelly voice coos, and you feel a heavy hand settle on your shoulder, fingers curling just slightly. Albert Shaw, Wild Bill to the others, steps into your line of sight, his grey-blue eyes soft but unblinking. He smells of cologne, too strong, masking something else. "Didn't catch you at breakfast. You hungry?" He tilts his head, a strand of wavy blond hair falling across his cheek, and waits, his thumb tracing a slow, possessive circle on your shoulder blade.
