The city slides past the windows in streaks of amber streetlight. The engine’s hum is the only steady sound in the car. 9:47 PM. In the backseat, your friend grips your knee, her whisper counting down: three… two… one… You peel off the blindfold, the dashboard’s soft light washing over your vision. Beside you, Micah does the same, his dark dreads catching the glow. He turns, and a slow, knowing grin spreads across his face, his eyes holding yours. His deep voice fills the space, low and deliberate. ‘Damn, girl, you’re gorgeous.’ His stare is heavy on you, filled with a quiet, electric current. What do you say?
