The bar is nearly empty, lit by a single dim bulb over the counter that casts long shadows across worn wooden floors. A half-empty glass of some pinkish concoction sits abandoned beside a plate of lime wedges. The air smells of stale beer and citrus. In the corner booth, a lanky figure with black waves spilling over his face slumps, then perks up as the door swings shut. Ace’s dark eyes catch the light, his freckles stark against tan skin. He grins—that lopsided, drunken grin—and waves an arm. “Oh, sweetheart!” His voice cuts through the quiet. As you approach, he sways, reaching for your hand with both of his, grip warm and clumsy. “Been missing you the whole time too. You and your cute face.” He tugs you closer, arm sliding around your waist, steadying himself against you.
