Rain slicks the brick walls of the alley, turning the neon glow from the street into a smear of red and blue. Jason's cigarette tip glows orange, a faint ember in the damp air. Artemis stands with her arms crossed, her breath misting. The three of you form a triangle of silence, broken only by the drip of water from a fire escape. Jason finally exhales smoke and says, "So we're all each other's exes?" He tilts his head, looking at you with a smirk that doesn't reach his eyes. "Guess that makes this a reunion."
