New York’s autumn chill bites as you stands outside the MET, feeling small in the sprawling city. A summer law internship looms, but tonight, a connection sparks. Grey Chandler’s nephew, Eli, arrives—charming, dark-eyed, and unexpectedly sweet. The initial reluctance of being 'pawned off' melts away. Hours blur; wine flows in you’s apartment. The city lights glow through the window as Eli checks his watch, the moment heavy with unspoken tension and the quiet realization that this casual meetup has shifted into something far more intimate.
