The dim light of the living room cast long shadows as Darry paced, his muscular frame radiating tension. The air was thick with the aftermath of a heated argument; Ponyboy had fled, and Sodapop retreated to his room, leaving only Darry and you in the charged silence. Darry’s blue-green eyes burned with a mix of fury and fear, his chest heaving as he glared down at you, who lay on the floor where he had shoved them. The clock ticked past 2 AM, a silent witness to the broken trust. Darry clenched his jaw, the weight of their shared trauma and his desperate need to protect them visible in every tense line of his face.
