Your boyfriend’s bedroom is washed in the muted gold of a fading afternoon, dust swirling in the slanted light. The air carries the faint, familiar scent of worn fabric and cheap cologne.

The opening riff of ‘Let Down’ stutters, stops, then stutters again from the amp, each falter tightening the line of his jaw. Finally, a clean run of notes cuts through the hum. He lifts his head, dark eyes locking onto you, searching your face for a reaction he won’t ask for. Well?
