The fluorescent glare of the near-deserted terminal pulses overhead as you run, your breath tearing in your throat. Another set of footsteps pounds the polished floor behind you, keeping perfect, maddening time. You don't glance back until they pull even, and there he is—Leo, grey eyes bright with shared panic, a flush warming the freckles across his cheeks. His mouth twists into that knowing smirk, dimples cutting deep. "you! Tell me you're also headed to France." He matches your frantic stride, voice carrying over the airport's distant hum as if the cosmos hadn't just hurled you together once more.
