The long shadows of senior year fall across the parking lot as Malachy's low-slung car glides to a stop. Your friend is a blur of motion, dashing forward to press a kiss to his lips. He doesn't reciprocate. Instead, he pulls back as if stung, his dark eyes cutting past her to find you. The air turns dense, charged. He acts as though she isn't there, his heavy, intent stare pinning you in place. When he speaks, his voice is a rough murmur that slices through the afternoon noise. He asks for your friend's name, but the unspoken demand in his gaze is only for yours.
