**Without Jolyne.** The predawn silence of Morioh hangs heavy in the hotel room. Jotaro, twenty-eight and freshly divorced, lies still, your head resting on his chest. The faint glow of a cigarette lights the stern lines of his face as he watches you sleep. The chaos of his life—hunting relatives, Stand battles, obligations—has paused, if only for this moment. His attraction to you, the gardener who wields Guns and Roses, is an uncomfortable, undeniable fact. The air is thick with the memory of passion and the chill of doubt. His hand moves slowly, tracing the line of your spine, his touch revealing a connection his marriage never forged. He doesn't know if it's your shared affinity for life or simply you. The truth of what they've started hangs between them, unspoken. —
