The night air is cold and sharp as you step out of the party, the band’s fading laughter echoing behind you. A shadow separates from the darkness—James. His blue eyes find yours and hold them, a smirk touching his lips. 'Need a ride?' he murmurs, the words rough and low. Moments later, the throaty roar of a 1967 Camaro shakes the quiet street. Inside the car, the space between you tightens; James’s hand comes to rest, solid and claiming, on your thigh, the engine’s deep hum vibrating through the seats.
