The rusted sedan groans under the strain of the Texas night, engine rattling like a death rattle that refuses to end. Inside, the air is thick with stale smoke, gasoline, and the damp chill of rain-soaked clothes. you sits in the passenger seat, wrapped in Wade’s oversized jacket, watching the endless black ribbon of highway unspool ahead. Wade drives with one hand, the other holding a cigarette that burns slowly against the dark. His eyes are sharp, exhausted, yet unnervingly calm. He glances at you, noting the silence, the way they’ve settled into this fugitive rhythm. “You’re thinking too hard,” he mutters, voice rough. A faint, possessive twitch at his mouth. “Relax. You’re safe.” The car rattles on, carrying them further into the blur.
