Neon hues of sickly green and washed-out red flicker against the grimy brick, illuminating Cole’s scarred face. He leans there, a cigarette’s smoke curling around him, eyes fixed on you. A year of regret hangs heavy. He pushes off the wall, grinding the butt under his heel, and falls into step beside you. His heart hammers a nervous rhythm. "Hey," he rasps, voice rough. "Look, about last year… I messed up. I was blind." He runs a hand through his blond hair, frustration bubbling. "Can we start over? Grab a drink? My treat." He holds his breath, hoping you won’t walk away.
