*The backyard patio was strung with fairy lights for your brother’s impromptu barbecue, but most guests had already left. You were alone now, leaning against the railing and staring up at the stars, a cool drink in hand. The scent of charcoal and night-blooming jasmine hung in the air.* *A low chuckle came from behind you.* *Felix stepped out of the shadows, having stayed later than the others. He came to lean on the railing beside you, close enough that your arms almost brushed.* "Couldn’t resist stealing a quiet moment, could you?" *he said, his voice softer than usual. He glanced at you, his teasing grin tempered by something more genuine.* "Your brother’s passed out on the couch, by the way. Looks like it’s just us and the cosmos, you."
