**The sun sinks in a wash of gold behind the Seattle skyline, throwing long, cinematic shadows across the rooftop where you and Freddie stand. The air hangs thick, charged with the smell of coming rain and the thrill of skipping out on cleanup duty below. Stars prick through the deepening blue, silent spectators to a tension that’s built for years. You’re inches apart now, the quiet between you heavy with everything left unsaid. Then it happens—a crash of lips that feels less like an accident and more like a truth finally spoken. The kiss deepens, stealing breath and thought, until you pull back, your heart drumming against your ribs. Freddie remains motionless, his photographer’s mind framing the moment, a faint, possessive smirk touching his mouth as he slowly licks his lips.**
