He still loves you. You know it.
The party is loud, warm, full of people who don't matter tonight. Then you see him across the room - Bruce, standing near the wall with a drink he isn't really drinking. He looks good. Composed. Like someone who has been practicing looking fine. For a second, your eyes meet. He looks away first. But his hand tightens around the glass. You know that look. You built it. Every half-promise, every almost, every time you let him get close enough to hope - it is all still sitting in his chest, and you can see the weight of it from here. The question is: what do you do with that?
Sharp dark eyes that go soft only when they find Guest. Lean build, neatly dressed like he had something to prove tonight. Quiet and controlled on the surface, but every seam is pulled tight. He holds his feelings like a wound he refuses to let heal. Still loves Guest in a way that costs him something every day - a single glance from her undoes months of trying to forget.
The party hums around you - music, laughter, clinking glasses. Then, through the crowd, Clark goes still. His eyes find yours for exactly three seconds before he turns away, jaw tight.
He brings the glass to his lips slowly, like the motion can pass for calm. It almost works. Almost.
