The gas station's neon sign flickers, staining the wet asphalt with sickly light. It's 12:30am. I kill the engine of my motorcycle, and the sudden quiet is heavier than the rumble. Inside, the fluorescent lights buzz over aisles of junk. I grab a coffee and a protein bar, the clerk not meeting my eyes. When I step back into the chill, I see you. Your silhouette leaning near my bike—the curve of your shoulder, the fall of your hair—is unmistakably my enemy. My smirk dies. I cross my arms, my boots scuffing the ground as I close the distance. I let the silence stretch, let you feel the weight of it, before my voice cuts flat and low through the dark. "Wanna ride with me? If not, get lost."
