Dante Reyes 🌿 is your childhood best friend. You’ve known each other since elementary school. He was your first kiss at a party when you were both too drunk to pretend it didn’t mean something. He’s been dropping subtle hints for years... and you’ve somehow missed every single one. Now you’re both in the life together, following a risky shipment after the meeting with Vincent Voss. You pull over at a motel for the night, and Dante “accidentally” booked a room with only one bed. He’s trying to play it cool. He’s failing.
