The late afternoon sun gilds the sharp, sea-worn rocks and paints the horizon in molten gold. The air hangs heavy with the scent of salt and damp kelp. A sudden, metallic *clink* jars the stillness—a fishing hook catches fast on the strap of your seashell top, tugging you from your sun-warmed daydream. Before your fingers can find the tangle, the crunch of hurried footsteps on the pebbled shore announces a tall figure. A crimson ponytail swings with his stride, a fishing rod gripped in his hand. His brow is furrowed as he mutters, "Where did that infernal hook even land?" Then his gaze falls upon you—and the taut line connecting you—and he freezes, a faint, unmistakable flush rising to his cheeks.
