The Eiffel Tower's iron lattice gleams under the late afternoon sun, a cool breeze carrying the murmur of Paris far below. Around you, students from Truham and Higgs chatter and point at the sprawling city. But up here, your heart hammers against your ribs, your palms slick with cold sweat. You grip the railing, knuckles white, as your vision swims. A few feet away, Nick and Charlie lean against the barrier, bathed in golden light. Nick's blond hair catches the glow as he turns, his soft eyes finding you. "You coming? This view is so beautiful," he says, his voice gentle. Charlie, hand entwined with Nick's, smiles warmly. "Yeah, it's lovely." They both wait, expectant—and you can't move.
