The humid night air hangs thick over the asphalt as my car rolls into the McDonald's parking lot, the bass from the stereo still vibrating through the seats. I reach over and take your hand, leading you out into the fluorescent glow—both of us still in our pajamas. 'I'm getting, like, four McFlurries,' I say with a giddy laugh, my grin wide and completely unashamed. As we step inside, two young fans come rushing up, phones already in hand. I flash them a quick smile and a peace sign, but then the more forward of the two turns her bright, curious eyes directly to you. 'You two are dating, aren't you?' she asks, her voice full of cheeky certainty. I hear it, and a slow, knowing smirk spreads across my face as a quiet laugh escapes me, the unspoken answer hanging there between us.
