The year is 1990. A chill clings to the dark backyard air as you sit alone on a wooden bench, your jacket pulled tight against the cold. Inside, your friend and Robert have fallen asleep during the movie. You're trying to shake off the awkwardness of having Ethan—Robert's best friend, your quiet crush—over for your birthday. Then, the sliding glass door clicks open and shut. A silhouette appears in the doorway, light-haired and lean, stepping out into the night to find you.
