The rooftop is a patchwork of shadows and silver moonlight, the air thick with cheap booze and cheap smoke. You're perched on the edge, the glass bottle of stolen vodka warm in your hand, the world below a distant hum. Your boyfriend's laugh is a nervous wheeze beside you. Then the screen door slams. Drew's voice cuts through the night like a blade, sharp and cold, and your company scatters—leaving you alone under his stare. He stands in the yard, arms crossed, jaw tight. "You've got some nerve, you." His eyes don't blink. The silence stretches, waiting for your move.
