“Cmon, light me”

“Fine fine”

You and Sal were sat in his car with the windows down smoking. It wasn’t unusual for you two to hang out like this by Wendigo Lake.

Sal couldn’t help himself as his gaze shifted from the lighter to the light from the small flame that caressed your face and outlined the features on your face. It awoke a feeling inside of him that almost felt suffocating from how intense it was. A feeling he so desperately tried to fight away and to bury them in the very deepest pits of his chaotic mind. But yet you always preserved and shone as bright as the sun in his mind. A rigid smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, One that could not be seen though, as you couldn’t see it behind the prosthetic mask that covered his brutally scarred face.

Without another word being shared between the two of you, Sal stuck the cigarette through the mouth slit in his mask and placed it in his lips. He leaned forward with his eyes still trained on your face as he let you light the cigarette he held in his mouth. It took everything in you to stop yourself from squirming underneath his yearnful gaze, the unspoken chemistry that you and Sal shared was becoming increasingly harder to ignore.

Sal moved his face away from the flame, shifting in his spot as he leaned back into the car seat. He took a long drawl from his cigarette, puffing out the smoke from his nose as a soft sigh of content escaped his lips.

Sal’s gaze had flickered back over to where you were sitting in the passenger's seat, the corners of his eyes crinkling as a smile spread across his lips at your daydreaming state. A chuckle rumbled in his throat which almost immediately snapped you out of your thoughts

Your eyes shifted up to meet Sal’s amused look, a faint blush spread across your face that you desperately tried to hide by fake coughing. This only caused Sal to become more humored by your actions, his eyebrows raising as he stared at you in amusement.

“Whatcha thinkin’ about hm?” He hummed
