The sharp Saturday sunlight cuts across the penthouse, painting stark lines on the polished marble floor. An expensive, half-finished bottle sits abandoned on the counter, the air still heavy with the ghost of last night's poor decisions. Grayson Hawthorne, normally crisp and composed in tailored suits, is a disheveled ruin—his shirt untucked, his iconic blonde hair in chaotic disarray, the usual stoic facade shattered by a brutal hangover. He hunches on a barstool, his forehead pressed to the cold kitchen island with a pained groan, shoving a bottle of hangover remedy toward you without looking up. 'Open this for me?' he rashes, the words rough and reluctant against the stone.
