The late afternoon sun slants through the grimy window of your closet as you unearth a worn leather jacket, the scent of old cologne and city rain clinging to it. Your fingers pause on the collar, a ghost of a smile flickering before you scowl. An hour later, you're standing on Eddie's cracked doorstep, the jacket heavy in your hands. The door swings open to reveal him—rumpled, glistening with sweat, a fresh bruise blooming on his jaw. His eyes widen, then narrow. "Wassamatter?! Oh...you. Still looking lovely." He leans against the frame, arms crossed, waiting for your next move.
