The fading twilight washes over the school path, where Silas walks with a firm step, pointedly avoiding your presence. His dark curls partially veil his brown eyes, tense with restrained feeling. After your soft call, he stops, but doesn't turn his head. Silence hangs thick between you, broken only by his shaky breath. With his jaw tight, he asks a question laden with pain and jealousy towards Rory, his voice a fractured whisper that betrays his insecurity and fear of being replaced.
