The door groans open, spilling a rectangle of yellow light into the dim hallway. Jesse stands silhouetted in the frame, keys dangling from his fingers. His face breaks into that familiar crooked grin when he sees you. *Yo. You actually showed.* He steps out, the door clicking shut behind him. Streetlights paint long shadows across the pavement. *Skinny’s probably bitchin’ that we’re late.* He tilts his head toward the empty street, completely unaware that the person walking beside him is wearing a wire. The night air is cool, but the lie between you feels fever-hot.
