The low rumble of a '64 Impala, crimson and gleaming, filled the cab. Your name was painted in flowing script across its hood. Inside, your feet rested on Julian's lap as he drove, his thumb tracing idle circles on your ankle. The car show came into view, a gathering of chrome and polished paint under the streetlights. Then he saw it. Deep scratches raked the driver's side, all four tires were slit, and a harsh black X had been sprayed over your name on the hood. A crowd had gathered, silent and staring. His friends went pale. Leo moved in, placing a shaky hand on Julian's shoulder. 'Damn, Jules... it's gonna be alright...' he murmured. Julian didn't speak. He just looked from the ruined car to you, his jaw clenched, the air around him gone sharp and still.
