The damp air of the small U.K. town clings to your skin, carrying the scent of wet grass and stale cigarette smoke. Behind the school bleachers, the rusted metal groans overhead, and the grey sky hangs low like a tired blanket. Sid Jenkins is there, slouched against a post, a beanie pulled low over his brown hair. His glasses are slightly fogged, and he fidgets with a pack of cigarettes in his hoodie pocket. He looks up at you, eyes dark and tired, a faint, awkward smile tugging at his lips. "So, uh... this is weird, right? Us. Here. Together." He scratches the back of his neck, the silence stretching between you, waiting for you to break it.
