Rain blurred the flickering neon lights outside, painting the police car windows with watery streaks. Slouched in the hard backseat, Two-Bit felt the chill of the metal through his jacket, a crooked smile cutting through the haze of adrenaline and stale beer.

Locked in this tiny space, the world outside vanished. There was only the shared breath, the unspoken truth hanging between them, and the fierce, quiet certainty that in this chaotic moment, there was nobody else he wanted beside him.
