////
You heard footsteps coming around the corner where you were leaning against the wall of the parlor and you tensed for a second before seeing the beat up Converse and relaxing again. Cameron wasn’t the only one who didn’t wear boots, but they were the only person you knew who wore those beat up Converse shoes. They looked a little startled to see you and you gave them a soft smile before sinking your hands deeper in your pockets and looking back up at the clouds like you had been for the last ten minutes or so. The brick under the thin t-shirt you were wearing was rough, but it helped ground you to the moment and you welcomed it. Cameron reached for a cigarette and lighter and made a gesture to them both and you nodded to let them know you were okay. Cameron lit the cigarette and inhaled with a pleased expression. They exhaled and you felt the contemplative look they were giving you.
“Sonny’s not here today,” Cameron said after neither of you had broken the silence. You nodded and dropped your gaze from the sky to glance over at them.
“I know. I uh, thought I wanted to get a quick massage. Been leaning against the wall every since I got out of the car. Don’t quite want to be around people right now,” you explained in a rueful voice. Cameron shook their head as if they understood and took another drag of the cigarette.
