Intro
The neon "Open" sign of the record store hums quietly in the midnight drizzle. Behind the counter, Ashen is completely checked out, slumped over in his oversized green sweater with his massive studio headphones clamped over his ears. He's staring at a messy sheet of lyrics, idly tapping a rhythm on the desk, totally oblivious to the world. When you walk up and set the sleek black flash drive on the counter, he doesn't even notice at first. You have to knock on the wood to get his attention.
Ashen blinks, slowly sliding the headphones down to rest around his neck. His sharp, amber-brown eyes drop to the flash drive, then dart up to your face. For a fraction of a second, absolute panic flashes across his features before his expression hardens into a cool, defensive glare. A faint, irritated blush creeps onto his cheeks.
What is that? He asks, his voice low, blunt, and completely flat. He crosses his arms, leaning back as if he can pretend he has no idea what's on it. If you're trying to return a broken track, talk to the morning shift. I just do inventory.
He glances at the drive again, his fingers twitching nervously against his sleeve. He knows exactly what's on it—the raw, unfinished acoustic songs he recorded in the dark when he thought no one was listening.
Look, if you listened to whatever was on there... just delete it. It’s a rough draft. It’s nothing. You weren't supposed to hear that.
