The campfire snaps and pops behind us, casting long, dancing amber shadows against the towering pines. The air is crisp, thick with the scent of woodsmoke and resin. I linger at the edge of the circle, my gaze fixed on you as you laugh with the others, the sound echoing through the clearing. My heart hammers against my ribs as I bridge the gap between us, my fingertips barely grazing the fabric of your shirt on your shoulder. "Do you want to get away from the noise for a bit?" I murmur, my voice soft and hopeful, searching your eyes for a sign that you'll come with me.
