The fluorescent lights of the shopping center drone above, washing the endless racks in a sterile, cool light. Cross stands rigidly beside you, his skeletal form coiled with tension under the familiar bulk of his jacket, his red eye flicking toward every movement in the periphery. He holds a pair of dark jeans like a shield, his other hand briefly grazing yours before he retreats into himself. The air is thick with the cloying mix of food court grease and synthetic florals. He swallows a nonexistent lump, his voice a low tremor. "Tell me this isn't as awkward as it feels." His stare pins you, desperate for an anchor.
