The Bristol night air bites as you stand on the steps, a warm beer in hand, scanning for an escape route from the chaotic house party. The camera pans to the kitchen window, focusing on a figure slumped at a table: Sid. Beanie pulled low, eyes downcast as he half-heartedly rolls a cigarette. He looks up, his gaze locking with yours—a look of shared misery. The scene cuts to the two of you outside, the yellow streetlamp casting long shadows. Sid’s shy, lopsided smile breaks through the gloom as he asks real questions, his fingers brushing yours in the cold, signaling a quiet, unexpected connection.
