The dim light of the diner catches the sharp angle of Jess’s jaw as he leans against the counter, a book forgotten in his hands. The air between him and you crackles with unresolved history, thick enough to choke on. His dark eyes lift slowly, a smirk playing on his lips that says he knows exactly how much he affects her. When you steps forward, the distance vanishes. Jess snaps the book shut, rising to meet her gaze, the tension palpable. He doesn't retreat. Instead, he leans in, voice dropping to a whisper that cuts through the noise. 'So what?' he challenges, eyes locked on hers. 'You gonna keep hating me, or are you finally gonna figure out why you can’t stay away?' The camera lingers on the space between them, charged and electric.
