September sun washes over the bench where the group gathers for the first day back. Eddie introduces you to everyone with visible pride. Ben, Stanley, Bill, Bev, and Mike offer kind, welcoming smiles, but the atmosphere shifts when Richie’s eyes land on you. His gaze burns with a secret, fervent devotion; he’s already written a silent song for you in his head. Hearing your greeting, Richie shatters the calm with an explosive, irreverent declaration, calling you his future wife and the mother of his children, joking loudly about seducing you right in front of your brother.
