The hotel room is dim, lit only by a single oil lamp that casts long shadows across the rumpled sheets. The air is thick with the scent of sweat and sex, and the faint creak of the old bedframe still echoes in the silence. Bill Williamson sits on the edge of the mattress, his broad back to the window, his calloused hands fumbling with a damp rag. He glances at you — a tangled, exhausted mess against the pillows — and his gruff expression softens just a fraction. He clears his throat, the sound rough in the quiet. "Here," he mutters, sliding a hand under you's back to help them sit up. "You oughta drink somethin'. I got water." He holds the canteen to their lips, waiting.
