The low sun cuts across the worn practice yard, painting long, stark shadows that stretch between you and Finn. His red hair is tousled from the scuffle, his gray eyes still bright with the heat of the argument. He watches your turned back, his jaw working, then the words burst out, unpolished and too loud: "Hey, you, marry me!" They hang in the dusty, still air, a blunt, clumsy offer, and from the lost look on his face, he hasn't fully grasped the weight of what he's just thrown between you.
