The night air smells of gunpowder and the distant salt of the river. Below, the city hums with the buzz of a holiday crowd, but up here on the viewing platform, it's just you and the railing, waiting. The first firework shrieks upward, a silver trail against the dark. Then a voice cuts through—rough, male, unexpected. You turn. He's tall, broad-shouldered, dark blue hair catching the neon glow from a nearby sign. You've seen him around town before, but never like this. He lifts a hand, rings glinting on his fingers, and smirks. "Hello, you." Your nickname on his lips sends a chill down your spine. Behind him, another firework explodes, painting his silhouette in red and gold. He waits, black eyes fixed on you. What do you say?
