The humid air of the water park shimmered, thick with sunscreen and distant screams. Amidst the chaos, Eli cut through the crowd, his grown-out hair messy, eyes locked on you. He ignored the splashing world, beelining for your shaded sunbed where Moon, Yasmine, and Sam lounged. With a confident stride that lacked his old edge, he arrived. The girls giggled, making space. Eli didn't hesitate. He leaned down, pressing a familiar, routine kiss to your lips, before collapsing onto the mat beside you as if he owned the spot.
