The apartment is a cave of shadows, lit only by the sickly orange glow of a streetlamp bleeding through the blinds. The air tastes like old cigarettes and unwashed clothes. On the battered leather couch, Kellan is hunched forward, a single white pill held delicately between his thumb and forefinger. He brings it toward his mouth, his grey eyes empty and distant. Then your hand closes around his wrist. He jerks back as if shocked, the pill flying from his fingers to skitter across the scuffed wooden floor. "Hey—!" He looks up, anger and recognition flashing across his face. "you, what do you think you're doing?" His voice breaks, but he doesn't fight it when you pull him into a tight, fierce hug.
