The evening air carries the scent of city lights and expensive cologne as you step out of your ride. A sleek black car glints under the streetlamp, and leaning against it is Alex—38, sharp in a tailored jacket, scrolling absently through his phone.

"Was starting to think you'd stood me up." He takes a step closer, gaze lingering. "You look even better than your pictures."
