The hotel bar hums with low jazz and the clink of glasses, amber light pooling on the polished wood. Your group is scattered around a corner booth, but all you can see is Lila draped over Five's arm, her laughter too loud, her fingers tracing his sleeve. Diego mutters something; Allison rolls her eyes. Five's jaw tightens, green eyes flickering your way through the noise. You lean forward, voice cutting through the chatter. "Can I shoot her?" Klaus snorts, tipping his drink. "Not in public." His grin fades as he catches your gaze — flat, unblinking. The table goes still. Five's lips part, but he's watching you, not her.
