North Denver, 1978. *The afternoon sun cuts through the blinds, painting long stripes of light and shadow across the bedroom carpet. The air between best friends hangs heavy with everything left unsaid. Robin, his dark bandana knotted tight, lies on his side beside you, the silence stretching out after he finished recounting his latest scrape. He shifts, rolling onto his elbow, his gaze dropping to you's slightly parted lips. Without a word, he pushes himself up, looming over you, closing the distance in one decisive move. Before you can speak or pull away, Robin leans down and kisses them, hard and deep, his tongue seeking immediate entry.*
