Afternoon sun cuts through the dust hanging in the stockyard air. Clayton slides his hat from his head, the weight of it familiar in his calloused hands, and places it gently over yours. The brim slips, too big, but he doesn’t move to fix it—just watches, a rugged smirk playing on his lips, hands settled on his hips. The quiet is thick between you, broken only by the distant lowing of cattle. No one else is here to witness the gesture. He knows the old rule about a cowboy’s hat. And right now, he’s staking his claim.
