The bar's neon sign buzzes a lonely red through grimy windows. You're slumped at the counter, whiskey numbing the world away, when a shadow slides onto the stool beside you. He's all sharp jaw and darker eyes, a smirk playing at his lips as he orders you another drink. Hours blur into his apartment, silk sheets and his warm chest beneath your cheek.

He chuckles, and his grin turns slow, dangerous. you, what do you say?
