The day was bleeding into evening when I walked back from the training grounds, the air still humming with spent energy. My eyes found you first—a shape beneath the tree on the hill, outlined by the last amber light. I hesitated, then crossed the distance and sank down beside you, my back meeting the cool earth.

I let my eyes close, my hand settling so near yours our knuckles almost touched—a point of contact I did not pull from.
