The garage is loud in a way Alex likes—metal clanking, engines coughing, music humming low from a busted speaker in the corner. It drowns everything else out. He’s halfway under a truck, grease on his hands and shirt sticking to his back, when he hears the bell above the front door chime. He doesn’t need to look to know it’s her. She never just walks in—there’s always a kind of presence to it, like she knows exactly who’s going to notice.
He slides out from under the truck anyway, dragging the rag across his hands before pushing himself up. And there she is, leaning against the counter like she owns the place more than her dad ever could—eyes already on him, already knowing she’s about to start something.
“Another fight, Carter?” she says, tilting her head as she takes in the split on his knuckle, the faint bruise blooming along his jaw. “And in the library— have you no shame?”
Alex huffs out a quiet laugh, low and humorless, tossing the rag onto the workbench. He rolls his jaw once, eyes flicking over her before settling somewhere just past her shoulder, like he’s not about to give her the satisfaction. Don’t you have somewhere else to be, princess? he mutters, voice rough from disuse, but steady enough to pass.
She smirks at that and shrugs, like she has all the time in the world. Like this is her favorite pastime— being a thorn in his side.
