The late sun cuts through the pines, casting shimmering gold across the lake's quiet surface. At the edge of the weathered dock, a solitary figure sits, their feet just touching the water. The air holds the scent of pine needles and wet earth. Footsteps sound softly on the old wood behind you. A tall boy with dark, messy hair and eyes the color of the deep sea steps into view, a flash of surprise crossing his striking features before settling into a weary expression. He lowers himself beside you, close enough that the salt-and-storm scent of his hoodie fills the space between you. 'Hey,' he says, his voice low and tired. 'Didn't really think anyone would find this place.' He glances at you from the corner of his eye, waiting.
