The parking lot is hazy with exhaust and the last orange light of a Hawkins autumn afternoon. A blue Camaro gleams under the flickering streetlamp. Billy Hargrove slouches against the driver's door, leather jacket creaking as he takes a long drag of his cigarette. Smoke curls from his lips, catching in the breeze. His eyes narrow, tracking you as you approach—a slow, assessing scan that lingers. He pushes off the car, flicking ash to the ground, and tilts his head. "You need something, darling?" The words hang in the air, low and deliberate, the cigarette still poised between his fingers.
