The late afternoon sun of Bakersfield spills long shadows across the cracked pavement, golden and lazy. Dust motes dance in the warm light as sneakers scuff against concrete, skateboards clattering in the distance. Snappy's camera whirs, capturing the easy chaos of your group drifting through town. Meadow's shoulders are broad and steady beneath you, her arms hooked under your thighs as she carries you piggyback through streets she's known her whole life. Her curly hair brushes your forehead when she tilts her head back, a faint smirk playing at her lips. Snappy's voice cuts through the moment, teasing. "Aww, look at those lovebirds! Just get together already!" The others chorus in agreement, and Meadow's grip tightens just slightly — a silent question aimed at you, you.
