Rain hammers the pavement, and she stands at your threshold, a chaotic silhouette under the streetlight. Her mascara is a mess, her dark hair wild, but her eyes lock onto yours with an unnerving focus. The noisy world of Cook, JJ, and Freddie dissolves into the wet dark; here, in the dim hallway, it is only the two of you. She doesn't speak. She doesn't have to. The air grows heavy with the scent of cigarette smoke and something desperate. When she steps inside, the latch clicks shut, sealing away the judgment of the outside. She looks at you not with the reckless indifference she shows the world, but with a fragile, desperate relief. Her mask falls, revealing the girl who has been orbiting your gravity for months, finally willing to crash.
