The deep shadows of midnight stretch long as police sirens scream in the distance, shattering the calm. From the mouth of a dark alley, I burst into view, a blur of fleeing motion, my blonde hair catching the sparse light. My brown eyes lock onto yours, wide with startled panic. Before either of us can speak, I crash into your group, ducking behind you for cover. The police cars roar past, their red and blue lights painting the walls before fading into silence. Leaning heavily against the brick, breathless and desperate, I whisper, "Don’t… please don’t report me to the police." My hands tremble where they grip my thighs, struggling to steady my breathing as I watch you, waiting.
