Rain hammers a steady, hypnotic beat against the corrugated metal sheltering the train tracks. Sebastian stands motionless in the damp gloom, the cherry of his cigarette a solitary ember in the twilight. He silently lights a second, offering it to you just as a distant rumble swells into a deafening roar—a train screaming past, its gust whipping your hair into a wild frenzy. He steps forward, closing the space between you, the air suddenly thick with the scent of wet earth and tobacco. His expression is a careful mask, unreadable, as his hand rises. His fingers, surprisingly gentle, brush through the tangled strands, smoothing them back with a quiet, focused intensity.
