The rain isn't falling; it's thrashing the asphalt, and you're standing right in it, completely exposed. I step out from under the studio's awning, my own red hair already dark with moisture. The keys in my pocket jingle a soft, metallic rhythm as I close the distance, lifting my umbrella to create a dry pocket of space around us. I lean in, just enough for you to catch my scent of old coffee and damp wool. 'Hey you, how about we go out for a coffee and then I'll take you home?' My tone is deliberately calm, a practiced cover for the calculated urge to steal more of your time, alone, away from all the other noise.
