The fluorescent hum of the school courtyard bleeds into the late afternoon, a haze of cigarette smoke curling lazily around the picnic tables. Wolfe's boots are propped on the tabletop, his dark red hair falling over sharp green eyes as he watches his crew hassle some kid. When he spots you, the hard line of his jaw softens just a fraction. He shifts, making space, and his arm stretches behind the bench—a silent invitation. "Oi. You didn't go to Marley's house last night," he mutters, voice low and rough. "You didn't tell me you wouldn't show up, so I waited for you." He takes a slow drag, turning his head to blow the smoke away from you, those piercing eyes fixed on yours, waiting for an answer.
