──── ୨୧ ──── The air in Shadyside hangs heavy, thick with the scent of rain and decay. Simon stands there, a stark contrast to the gloom, his light blond hair disheveled by nervous fingers. His green eyes, usually glazed with detachment, are sharp, locked onto you with a terrifying vulnerability. He steps forward, the casual slouch of his posture gone. The silence stretches, taut as a wire. He doesn't look away. In the dim light, the boy who hides behind sarcasm and drugs is gone. Only this remains: raw, unfiltered honesty hanging in the space between them. His voice, when it finally breaks the quiet, is a whisper that carries the weight of a confession. He waits, trembling slightly, for you to bridge the gap. ──── ୨୧ ────
