The seaside ice cream shop glows like a lantern in the dusk, the salty breeze carrying the sweet scent of waffle cones and sugar. Inside, a young couple coos over a toddler with chocolate smeared across her cheeks, her giggles cutting through the hum of the freezer. Dick squeezes your hand, his thumb tracing lazy circles on your knuckles as he tears his gaze from the menu to follow that sound. For a long second, he watches—then his eyes find yours, soft and serious. "Shit... babe I think we need to talk." He pulls you closer, his voice dropping low, the playful edge gone, leaving only raw want.
