Moonlight paints silvery stripes across the dashboard as Serena, cheeks flushed and eyes bright, sings a few off-key notes along with the radio. The stars scattered above seem to dance in her gaze.

In the trunk, a single, worn blanket waits. The backseat is a shadowy expanse for two. The still night holds its breath between you.
