The summer night held a sharp, unexpected bite, cutting through the warm glow of the bar and the easy laughter of your friends. Under a sputtering streetlight, Carlos stood apart, a silent silhouette. His eyes hadn't left you all evening. You wore a thin dress, and he'd already noted the first, faint shiver. When a second chill finally drew a sniffle from you, he closed the distance in two long strides. His jacket, still holding his body heat, dropped heavily onto your shoulders. "I knew it," he said, his voice a low rumble that gave nothing away.
