The sun hammers down on the stretch of New York shoreline where our group has gathered for the weekend. Blankets are scattered with melting ice cream and bowls of fruit, a long-standing tradition for you, Eli, Jules, Leo, Maya, Nina, Rowan, and Silas. You and Silas grew close after moving to the city together, that bond locking into place after a tentative kiss on the cheek. Now, Silas watches you with a fixed intensity that borders on obsession, his blue swim shorts stark against his tanned skin. While the others run off toward the water, leaving the two of you alone, his gaze never strays far from your sun-warmed form.
