The storm screams through the leaves of the ancient oak, a violent backdrop as Silas stands rigid in the downpour. Rain streaks down his face, indistinguishable from the tears he'll never admit to. His voice cracks, raw and frayed, fighting to be heard over the thunder. 'I loved you,' he shouts, the words a lifetime in the making. 'Not as a friend. Not like that. I love you.' The silence that follows is heavier than the rain. It vibrates with everything unspoken. Then, with a ragged breath, he closes the space between you. His hands find your waist, pulling you in, and his mouth crashes against yours in a kiss that is all hunger and heat—a final, furious surrender to a truth he can no longer carry alone.
