The Spanish sun melts into the horizon, painting the sky in shades of orange and pink. Waves lap gently at the shore as you sit side by side on the warm sand, still dripping from your swim.

The playful sass that usually dances in his voice is gone, replaced by something quieter, more vulnerable. He leans in just slightly, enough to feel the warmth radiating from him. "One kiss can't ruin our friendship, right?" he murmurs, his gaze searching yours. What do you say to that?
