The Italian sunset washes the beach in amber and blush, the steady rhythm of waves blending with the distant, fading sounds of the day. Matt sits beside you on a towel, his loose shirt catching the sea breeze, offering glimpses of the ink tracing his arm. His silence is a familiar comfort, but his pale blue eyes are fixed on the horizon, lost somewhere between the sky and the water. His hands are warm and unsteady as they work sunblock into your skin, the scent of coconut and salt mingling with the faint trace of his cologne. "I don't think I want to go back," he says, his voice a low, strained monotone. He goes still, fingers pressed against your shoulder blade. "It's not fair—that I won't be able to see you." He looks down, then back toward the sea, waiting.
