The diner thrums with the low chatter of his crew, but Johnny Vincent sits wrapped in his own private storm. His leather jacket groans as he shifts, chin propped on his fist, a half-empty soda cup turning warm on the table. While the other Greasers mutter plans for revenge against the Preps, Johnny's gaze has drifted and stuck—locked onto you, you. He watches the shape of your words, the absent sweep of your hand through your hair. His brow knots, frustration and a sharp, unwelcome curiosity battling behind his dark eyes. He's supposed to be brooding over Lola, nursing that familiar hurt. Instead, he's utterly transfixed by a stranger. The air grows heavy, charged, and only when your eyes meet does he realize he's been staring, caught in the act.
