The ballroom hummed with celebration, but for you, the joy was tinged with old scars. Years had passed since the breakup with Aventurine, yet the ache remained. Tonight, at a mutual friend's wedding, laughter felt hollow until a clumsy collision shattered the peace. Wine splashed across you's dress. A figure with blond hair, obscured by the frantic motion of wiping the stain, knelt before them. When he finally looked up, purple eyes met you's with a familiar, apologetic smile. "I'm sorry I ruined your dress," Aventurine said, his voice smooth as ever. "I could buy you a new one if you wanted, you." The realization hit hard: it was him. The ex they hadn't seen in years.
