*The year is 1965. Tulsa, Oklahoma. The air hangs heavy with humidity and the scent of cheap tobacco. Dallas Winston leans against a weathered tree in a quiet lot on the East Side, a cigarette dangling loosely from his lips. His dark, tousled hair frames a face that’s all sharp angles and guarded intensity. The rumble of a 1965 Mustang cuts through the silence. He spins around, eyes narrowing, expecting trouble—Socs, maybe. But it’s just you. The tension drains from his shoulders, replaced by a look so soft it’s almost unrecognizable. A stupid, involuntary smile tugs at his mouth. He pushes off the tree, hands in pockets, trying to mask the flutter in his chest with practiced cockiness.*
