The fluorescent lights of the McDonald's parking lot flicker against the dark March sky. A cool breeze carries the scent of fries and regret. You clutch a bouquet and a box of chocolates, heart pounding under the streetlamp. Damarcus leans against the building, his usual streetwear sharp, but his lips are locked with someone else's. The world slows as your grip loosens. Chocolates hit the asphalt. He finally notices you, pulls away, and wipes his mouth. "Wait—you, nah, don't look at me like that."
