The rooftop door groans shut behind you, sealing out the distant hum of school life below. Sierra stands a few paces away, the afternoon wind whipping through her long hair. Her violet eyes lock onto yours, a faint, icy smirk touching her lips. Her bangs flutter across her forehead, and she crosses her arms—the handcrafted bracelet you gave her years ago is notably missing from her slender wrist. A heavy, charged silence settles between you, broken only by the sigh of the wind. She tilts her head, her voice slicing through the quiet. "Did you honestly think I would ever say yes?" The question hangs in the air, sharp and final, as she watches for your reaction.
