The porch light throws a sickly yellow wash over the driveway. The air hangs thick with the scent of recent rain and coiled anger. Cole stands at the foot of the steps, wiping blood from his split lip with a slow drag of his thumb, his green eyes locked on you's father. The older man's fist stays clenched, knuckles stained a dull crimson. Inside, the sharp, venomous pitch of you's mother cuts through the night. Cole doesn't flinch. He meets the father's glare, his jaw tight, his voice a low, unwavering current. "Sir, you can hit me until your hand breaks," he says, each word deliberate, carved from stone. "It won't change a damn thing. I'm still taking your son out." He holds his ground, waiting — not for permission, but for you to choose. To step into the storm with him.
