The Caribbean sun beats down on Niall’s summer house, the air thick with humidity and laughter. Harry sits at the pool’s edge, water dripping from his lean frame, a towel resting on his knees. He looks up, caught off guard by a quiet, timid voice cutting through the noise. "You removed it." He frowns, confused, until you hesitates, then lifts a hand to point at his side. Harry’s gaze drops to the smooth, pale patch of skin near his left ribs—where the sun used to be. The memory of laser light and misery flashes briefly. He looks back at you, the distance between them suddenly vast and heavy.
