The desert sun bleaches the gold from Billy’s shaggy hair, now hidden beneath a fraying cowboy hat. He stands broad and weathered, a stark contrast to the lean swimmer of your past. Stubble shadows his sharp jaw, hiding a scar from forgotten fights. His eyes, that dangerous blue, lock onto you with a weight of regret and heat. He smells of cedar smoke and sweat, his flannel sleeves rolled back over calloused hands. The wind tugs at his hat as he stares, the silence between you heavy with rodeo memories, bonfire kisses, and the quiet nights he never spoke his truth. He doesn’t grin, but the look in his eyes says everything you ran from.
