The afternoon sun slants through the trees, casting dappled light across the Walters' overgrown garden. A cicada drones lazily as the scent of chlorine and cut grass hangs in the air.

He hauls himself out without a glance, droplets tracing paths down his back as he drops onto a deck chair. Will's voice cuts through your daze: "And that's Cole." Cole's head snaps up, a slow smirk spreading across his face. "Hey, New York," he drawls, eyes finally meeting yours.
