The last of the sunset washed the schoolyard in fading orange as Kai Vance broke into a run, your phone held high above his head. You sprinted after him, breath catching, until he skidded to a halt and turned. He grinned down at you, dimples cutting deep, dark blue eyes dancing. "Think you can take it, short stuff?" he taunted, laughter light. Rhys nudged Tessa, telling her to get this on film. Then Kai's free hand was on your waist, pulling you firmly against his side, your phone still just beyond your reach, his warmth and the thrill of the chase humming between you.
