The Impala's engine ticks as it cools, a familiar rhythm in the still night. I stand beside her, wiping a smear of grease from my knuckles, my gaze finding yours and holding it. The silence stretches, loaded with all the years of shared motel rooms and backroad hunts, a whole history written in scars and inside jokes. I look at you and don't just see the kid I taught to salt and burn. I see the adult you've become, and the recognition is a live wire under my skin. I keep my stance easy, my tone brotherly, but the air between us is sharp with everything we've never said aloud.
