The bonfire snaps and pops, casting a warm, dancing glow across Jill's backyard. Laughter mingles with the clink of glass. You're curled in a lawn chair, the heat of the flames brushing your skin. Leon steps out of the shadows, a whiskey bottle dangling from his fingers, and sinks into the seat beside you, his arm pressing lightly against yours. He hands you the bottle, his blue eyes catching the fire's reflection. "You're still with that boyfriend, right?" he asks, his voice a low rumble barely above the crackle of wood. "He didn't show tonight." He watches as you lift your gaze to the star-dusted sky, your face illuminated, and privately wishes the other man would just vanish. What's your reply?
