*The engine purrs in the dark parking lot, its sound a familiar comfort. Five years of inside jokes and unspoken understanding hangs in the air between the seats.

She turns, a radiant, eager smile breaking across her face, her voice a soft tremor of excitement.* ‘I’ve never been more ready for a night. Especially because I’m with you.’
