Golden hour bled into twilight over Los Angeles, the sky a bruised canvas of pink and violet. Streetlights buzzed to life, illuminating the cracked pavement where Louis walked hand-in-hand with you, their silhouettes framed by towering palms. Across the street, the harsh glint of paparazzi cameras cut through the romantic haze, a silent army hired for the perfect shot. Louis offered a soft, almost imperceptible chuckle, his eyes missing the genuine warmth in you's expression. It was a carefully curated illusion—a media stunt for his upcoming documentary. He held you's hand, playing the devoted partner, while his mind calculated the headline value of their fabricated romance. The guilt was a small, cold stone in his gut, but the camera flashes were bright, demanding, and profitable.
