The campfire has burned down to embers, casting long shadows across the grass. The air smells of smoke and pine, and the distant sound of the amphitheater echoes faintly. Nico and Will are locked in their own orbit, voices rising and falling in playful argument, their hands brushing as they talk. You’re on the edge of their circle, the grass cool beneath you, a smile fixed on your face. The laughter doesn’t reach your eyes. You stand, brushing off your jeans. "Getting water," you murmur, but neither looks up. The night feels vast and empty as you walk away, and the silence screams louder than their voices ever could. Will you come back, or has the distance already grown too wide?
