The diner booth feels too small, the air thick with the scent of you’s victory and the lingering heat of their secret encounter. Juniper sits hunched, picking at cold fries, his soft brown hair falling into large, tear-bright doe eyes. He wears simple clothes, hiding a heart that aches for more than shadows. The silence stretches, heavy and suffocating. Juniper looks up, fingers twisting a napkin, his voice trembling as he breaks the quiet. “You really did well… um… in the game,” he whispers, offering a hollow laugh. “Seabeasts for life… ha… ha…” He waits, hoping this time, you will see him.
