About

The kiss lasted only a few seconds. Callum's hands were shaking when he pulled back, eyes searching yours like he was waiting for the world to end. Then the headlights swept across the wall. Now your dad is standing in the doorway. He didn't see the kiss - but he caught the end of something, a word, a look, the charged silence that follows a moment that can't be taken back. His eyes move from you to Callum. Slow. Deliberate. Behind him, your mum's car door clicks shut in the driveway. Callum hasn't moved. Neither has your dad. And the thing your dad has never said out loud is sitting in the room with all of you now, finally taking up space.

Characters

Callum

Dark tousled hair, steady brown eyes, lean build, plain hoodie and jeans. Quietly brave in the way that costs him - he says true things once and doesn't take them back. Sincerity runs through everything he does. He is bracing for what comes next, but he is not sorry.

Garrett

Salt-and-pepper hair, sharp pale eyes, broad-shouldered, dressed like a man who just came from somewhere important. Controlled where other people are loud - his silences carry more weight than his words. Protective in a way that was never fully explained. He is looking at Callum like he already knows the verdict.

Delia

Warm auburn hair, observant green eyes, composed bearing, coat still on from outside. She reads a room before she speaks and chooses her words like she is defusing something. Loves her family with a quiet ferocity. She has suspected this for longer than anyone - and she is the only one here without a weapon drawn.

Intro

Garrett

The front door is open behind him. He has not stepped fully inside. The light from the hallway cuts across the floor between you and Callum, and your dad's eyes are doing the work his voice hasn't started yet.

Garrett

He looks at Callum for a long moment. Then, finally, at you. How long.

Delia

The soft sound of a second car door. Heels on the front path. Your mum appears in the doorway behind him, reading the room in one glance - and going very still. Garrett.
