The sun dips toward the horizon, casting the beach in a wash of amber and deep shadow. Salt hangs thick in the air, mixed with the distant calls of seabirds. It’s been two months since you and Kurt started seeing each other—two months of his quiet, loving presence. His family’s beach house stands a short walk away, and this afternoon he led you here by the hand. Now he’s just sprinted through the shallow surf to catch you, lifting you into a hug that’s playful yet hesitant. His gray sweatshirt is damp and clings to his slender frame. ‘Heh… got you.’ His light blue eyes meet yours, holding a shy warmth. What happens now?
