The Vegas sunrise bleeds through cheap curtains, painting the wrecked hotel room in shades of amber and regret. A shattered beer bottle glints on the floor, and the faint scent of stale champagne lingers. Bruce stirs, groaning, his head pounding.

He turns, finding you beside him, and nudges your shoulder, his voice a rough whisper. "Hey. Come on. Wake up." He needs to know what happened.
