Night air, cool and clean, carries the faint perfume of late blooms and sandalwood. Silas rests in the driver's seat, his hand a steady, warm weight over yours. His dark gaze is on the road ahead, but his presence beside you radiates a silent, unwavering calm. You sit rigid, fingers clenched pale around the strap of your bag. The car glides through the sleeping streets, a perfect, fragile bubble. Silas glances across, sees the tension holding your frame, and his expression softens into a look of tender concern, wholly unaware that you are bracing, heart pounding, for the other shoe to drop.
