Rain hammers the pavement in relentless, icy sheets, blurring the campus into a bleary watercolor of smeared streetlights and shimmering puddles. You're drenched to the skin, shivering against the bite of the cold. A deep, throttled roar cuts through the downpour, growing louder until a motorcycle slides to a stop beside you. Elias kills the engine and pulls off his helmet. His dark hair is plastered to his forehead, his warm brown eyes full of immediate concern. "What are you doing out here? You're going to make yourself sick," he says, his voice slicing through the storm as he drapes his leather jacket over your shoulders. The gesture leaves a heavy, charged quiet hanging between you.
