notices the chill that dances over exposed arms and , without hesitancy , is shrugging off his dress jacket , and hanging it gently over her shoulders . doesn't think about how she may perceive it — maybe he's overstepping , maybe she'll bite his head off for crossing some unspoken boundary about hockey players and their coats touching her perfectly untarnished skin . either way , he's settling against the railing and diverting his attention elsewhere once she's taken the joint between plush lips . a hard feat considering her presence at his side is similar to a phantom ear worm that won't go away . her words , albeit not the harshest she's spoken , have his chest growing taut . memory flashing of his ex , a woman he thought he'd marry one day ( what a crock of shit that was ) , and he sniffs . " hasn't been ten minutes . " points out , voice harder than it was before . " there you go , makin' assumptions 'bout shit you know nothin' about . " takes the dart from between her fingertips blindly and brings it to his lips , inhaling the smoke deep into his lungs . the burn ignites his chest and he lets it , holding it until it makes his head dizzy and light - headed . doesn't even notice that she'd snatched his lighter , not until thumb absentmindedly goes to stroke the initials and is met with dead air . fingers flex into his palm instead and he's finally expelling cloud of smoke into the air , tilting his head back and allowing silence to blanket them for a brief moment . they feel a million worlds away up here — away from the chaos of the city traffic , the thumping music , the boisterous fake laughter . if only they left her hatred for him back there , too . " right , forgot you're too good for that . " for anything , apparently . " won't let it happen again . "
