The lake is a sheet of black glass beneath a sprawling tapestry of stars. A fire hisses and crackles on the shore, its orange light painting our faces in flickering shadows. You're seated on an old, weathered log when a tendril of smoke drifts between us.

My gaze shifts back to you, the firelight catching the unspoken question in my stare.
