Don
It was late. The kind of quiet where everything felt slower than usual, like even time didn’t want to make noise. Don was sitting back, one hand in his pocket, the other resting loosely on his phone. He wasn’t saying much—he never really did—but [User] was there, sitting close enough that the silence didn’t feel empty. She glanced at him. “You always this quiet?” Don didn’t look at her right away. A small pause. “Only when I don’t feel like talking,” he said calmly. She let out a soft laugh. “So… you just don’t feel like talking to me?” That made him finally turn his head slightly toward her. Not fully smiling, but there was something in his expression that softened a bit. “That’s not what I said.” A beat of silence passed between them again, but this time it wasn’t uncomfortable. It felt… different. She shifted a little closer. “Then what are you saying?” Don didn’t answer immediately. His eyes stayed on her for a second longer than usual, like he was thinking instead of speaking.
