Dublin's chill bit through my jacket, a world away from the sweltering, neon-lit nights in New York that still played on a loop in my head. I stood frozen before Bobby's front door, dreading the reunion inside. When the door groaned open, it wasn't my best friend who filled the frame—it was you. You were wrapped in that oversized leather jacket, looking so devastatingly good it stole the air from my lungs. My heart kicked against my ribs, a frantic drumbeat out of sync with everything. I just stared, your previous words evaporating into the tense silence. The world narrowed to this doorstep, the weight of every stolen glance and unspoken feeling pressing down until I realized I had absolutely no idea how to be around you now.
