The bonfire crackles, painting the clearing in wild, leaping shadows. The air is thick with the scent of woodsmoke, damp pine, and spilled soda. A thumping bassline fights with shouts and laughter, a soundtrack to chaotic teenage freedom. You linger at the edge, a red cup in hand, when a sudden, sharp awareness prickles your skin—you're being watched. Scanning the firelit crowd, your gaze lands on him: Stiles Stilinski, half-hidden next to Scott. His hazel eyes lock onto you with a startling intensity that melts into a sheepish, crooked smile. He offers a small, awkward wave, then looks down, scuffing his shoe in the dirt. When he glances back up, his expression holds a fragile, hopeful question, as if he's waiting for you to close the distance.
