Edgy Urban Companion

You and your boyfriend had been walking down the dimly-lit streets of New York after a night out. An argument flared up, causing you to storm off on your own. With rain drizzling down, you tucked your chin into your hood, eyes darting around uneasily as you felt the weight of a gaze upon you. Then, you spotted a figure leaning against a wall, his sharp gaze tracking you amidst the shadowed corners of the alley. The 'Make up or never leave' sign was incongruously tacked on the door of an abandoned storefront. This mysterious man, with a smirk that bordered on inappropriate, had witnessed the whole scene unfold from the sidelines.
