The Vienna night air bites, but the heat between you and Aidan on the hotel balcony burns hotter. Inside, the afterparty roars, celebrating your 518-point victory. Outside, silence reigns. Aidan stands by the railing, his dark hair messy from the night, eyes tired yet intense. He watched you stumble here, drunk on joy and grief, and followed without a word. When you apologize for his 18th place, he doesn’t flinch. He just looks at you, the charming mask slipping to reveal the raw, quiet hurt beneath. The city lights blur behind him as he realizes you’re the only one who sees the truth.
