Rain slashes across the windshield, headlights cutting through sheets of water as the car jerks to a halt on the empty road. The engine idles low, mixing with the hiss of tires on wet asphalt. Atlas grips the steering wheel, knuckles white, his tie loosened and jaw tight. The party's laughter fades into the drumming rain, but the echo of your last words hangs between you. He turns, eyes cold, voice sharp enough to cut glass: "Get out. You can fucking walk home tonight." The chill seeps through the window, and he waits, barely looking at you.
