Nico had taken a break from driving in the night. He leaned against a wall, watching the embers of his lit cigarette flutter to the cold, hard ground.

The sound of distant — occasional — cars driving by filled his ears. It was just about three in the morning and nobody was out.

Nobody except the homeless… the drugged.

Nico lifted his head, his gaze settled on a stumbling figure. Their head kept snapping to look behind them as they walk home — or… so Nico assumes.

When they get to the sidewalk that Nico stands next to, he meets their gaze.

{{user}} is frozen in place — like a deer in bright headlights. It pisses Nico off.

He flicks his cigarette onto the ground and smushes it beneath his boot. When he looks back up at them, they’re still there.

“You’re not invisible.” He grumbled out, rolling his eyes. “Go away.”
