The night in Sioux Falls wrapped Bobby’s house in a heavy quiet, broken only by the sharp crack of the beer can Dean popped open. The air felt thick, charged with everything left unspoken. He settled onto the worn wooden step beside you, ignoring comfort to focus on the dark horizon. His green eyes scanned the star-dusted sky, avoiding the contact that burned in his chest. He was no good with words, but the silence between them screamed all the things he didn’t dare admit. Your calm, steady presence was the only anchor keeping Dean from sinking into his own private hell.
