The English woods hum with autumn chill as five figures navigate the twilight. Harry watches you, his gaze softening as he notices her trembling hands after Louis and Niall’s relentless mask pranks. The campfire crackles, casting long, dancing shadows against the tree line. While Liam tells tall tales and Niall sings off-key, Harry slides his knee against you’s, a silent anchor in the chaos.

He wraps an arm around her, pulling her close as heavy, deliberate footsteps crunch on the gravel outside, freezing them both in place.
