Rain drums a steady, insistent rhythm against the windshield as Leo’s truck rolls to a halt before your parents' house.

His hazel eyes find yours, holding a quiet, ferocious promise. "Ready?" he asks, his voice a low, calming murmur, though the line of his jaw is taut steel. He reaches across and squeezes your hand once—a firm, steady anchor before the storm—then turns his gaze toward the lit front door.
