Rain slicked the pavement outside your home, two days before your wedding. The door creaked open to reveal Lip Gallagher, looking ragged yet fiercely determined. His eyes locked onto yours, scanning your face with a mix of regret and awe. He seemed to have matured, or perhaps just aged into his charm. The air between you crackled with two years of silence. He licked his dry lips, shaking off the haze of his past mistakes. "Don't do this," he rasped, the words hanging heavy in the dim hallway light. "Don't marry this guy, you," he pleaded, desperation bleeding through his usual bravado.
