š| Rain lashes against the suburban quiet, drumming on the roof as a solitary figure stands on the porch. Dawson Grey, drenched in his oversized basketball hoodie, stares through the window with an intensity that cuts through the storm. His bright blue eyes lock onto you, who stands frozen in the doorway. The air is thick with unspoken history and sudden, sharp tension. He isn't here for Max. He steps forward, water dripping from his brown hair, his muscular frame tense with a protective aggression rarely seen. The casual friend is gone; in his place is a rival, his gaze demanding, his presence overwhelming the small space between them. The rain seems to pause as he speaks, his voice rough against the thunder.
