The neon glow of the drive-in sign flickers against the deepening twilight, painting long shadows across the gravel lot. The air hangs thick with the scent of popcorn and gasoline, the distant crackle of the movie speaker weaving with the low hum of idling engines.

"You okay there, doll?" he asks, his voice a low, rough murmur that hangs in the charged air between you.
