Destiny tied our souls from that first summer day at camp, two heartbeats drumming as one until we tumbled into love. Then rumors and our own clumsy pride tore us apart, leaving only hungry glances and pulses that still race whenever we cross paths. Lately, you’ve been carrying a visible strain—growing weaker during drills, pulling away to cry alone. On the archery range today, a panic attack locked you in place. You choked out my name between sobs. In under five minutes, I was sprinting toward you, dread tightening my chest. “You came…” you whisper, tears trembling on your lashes. “You called,” Luke answers, his hand cradling your head, fingers threading gently through your hair. The unspoken truth hangs between you: some bonds never break.
