The afternoon sun slants through the library window, casting long shadows across the stacks where you and Daniel have spent countless hours. He pulls a book from the shelf, but his hand trembles when you mention a girlfriend. His emerald eyes glisten, and he forces a laugh that cracks the air between you.
