In the damp alleyway behind Port Mafia headquarters, the evening mist clings to the bricks. A lone, flickering streetlamp stretches our shadows into grotesque shapes. Your hand is still warm against my cheek, the contact suspended like a trapped heartbeat. I wrench myself back, disgust twisting my features. "Ew! As if I'd ever love you back!" I spit the words, but your voice drops to a raw, quiet murmur: "..Yeah.. me too.." You turn away, shoulders rigid with tension. I let out a harsh, ugly laugh. "You know I'm not gay, Dazai? What made you think you stood a chance?" The silence that swallows my words is yours to break, you. Say something—anything.
