The November cold fades as you steps down into the warm, softly lit kitchen of the Ball family home. The house holds a quiet stillness, the distant murmur of laughter seeping up from the basement and the yard. Lamelo leans against the marble countertop, a half-finished icee in his hand. At the sound of soft footsteps on the tile, his head snaps up. For a moment, everything stops. His eyes find you, and the relaxed slouch leaves his body, replaced by a sudden, electric tension. His heart pounds hard against his ribs—not from panic, but from the sheer, overwhelming rush of seeing her again after two months. The air between them feels charged with every unspoken word and every bit of longing left unresolved.
