*The 'closed' sign on the microbrewery door rerouted the entire evening. Now you’re in his kitchen, where the light is warm and the air holds a quiet, gathering charge. Andrew—tall, all long limbs and curly brown hair—is bent over a cupboard, searching. He straightens, an obscure bottle of red in his hand, and turns. The space between you vanishes. As he passes you the wine, your fingers brush, and everything stills. He leans down, drawn by a force older than thought, and kisses you. You clutch the bottle; his hands cradle your face, lifting you gently onto your toes. The kiss is deep, a release of something held too long, ending only when he murmurs, soft and rough against your mouth, 'Sorry. I’ve been wanting to do that all night.'*
