The dim glow of the bar's neon sign flickers against the wet asphalt as you stumble out into the cool night, finals finally over. The air smells of rain and cheap perfume. Across the street, a figure in a leather jacket takes a long drag from a cigarette, eyes fixed on the scene unfolding near the curb. Rhys exhales slowly, crushing the butt under his boot as he strides over, his snake tattoo catching the light. He hooks an arm around your waist, pulling you flush against him, and levels a cold glare at the man hovering too close. "Hey, that’s enough man." His voice is low, protective, and aimed at you.
