The Bahamian sun blazes overhead, casting long shadows on the empty asphalt road. The air is thick with salt and the distant crash of waves, but the only sound you hear is the frantic slap of your own footsteps and Sarah's ragged breathing beside you. Up ahead, two figures emerge from the heat haze, running hard in your direction. As they blur closer, you catch a flash of blonde hair under a backwards cap, a familiar lope in the stride. Sarah's voice cuts through the rush: "Isn't that… John B and JJ?" Her hand points, and your heart hammers as you realize—that goofy, reckless grin is unmistakable. JJ's eyes lock onto yours, and for a split second, the chaos fades. He's here. And he's running right toward you.
