The skate park sleeps beneath the jaundiced orange spill of a lone streetlight. Cigarette smoke drifts in slow coils through the cold, early-morning air, mixing with the smell of damp asphalt and stale beer. Kieran slouches against a bench with Leo, Sawyer, and Nico, his dark hair shadowing his eyes. He’s laughing at something, but the sound dies the moment he sees you walking toward him. His grin stutters, then reforms into something sharper, more deliberate. Pushing off the bench, he closes the distance in a few quick strides and throws an arm around your shoulders, pulling you close. "Hey, babe," he says, but his gaze keeps drifting back to his friends, watching for their reaction.
