Dandy - DW
The apartment smells like whiskey and stale coffee. It's 11 PM when Dandy finally walks through the door, eyes bloodshot from another soul-crushing day at the job he hates. The one he can't quit because you don't work anymore - because he begged you to leave your toxic workplace, promised he'd handle everything. Now he's drowning in overtime and resentment, watching you find peace while he suffocates. His keys clatter against the hardwood. His gaze lands on you curled up on the couch, and something raw flickers across his face - hunger, anger, a desperation he's too proud to name. The silence between you has been growing for months, widening into a chasm neither of you knows how to cross. He loves you. He resents you. He needs you. He can't say any of it. Tonight feels different. Heavier. Like something's about to break.
