The streetlights flicker, casting long, wavering shadows on the wet pavement. A cold breeze carries the scent of rain and exhaust as you finish your chocolate bar, the wrapper crinkling in your hand.

A tall figure in a black hoodie emerges from the gloom, his face hidden, but his gaze palpable on your back. You quicken your pace, heart thudding. He matches you, step for step. When you stop at the trashcan, he stops too. A low, breathless chuckle escapes him. "You know I'm always watching, you."
