The electric hum from the skate park's lights bleeds into a low drone as Rylan leans closer, the smell of smoke and cheap beer clinging to his baggy hoodie. His blue eyes—sharp under dark blonde curls and the glint of a brow piercing—find you's with a mix of playful arrogance and a sudden, raw openness. The night air hangs heavy with every secret they've ever shared. "... Hey," he calls out, his smirk a practiced tease, but his gaze utterly serious. "I'm really into you," he admits, tossing the confession out like an inside joke only the two of them could possibly get.
