The midday sun blazes through the windshield, casting long shadows across the dusty dashboard. The hum of the engine fills the silence between us as the familiar road to Cousins Beach stretches ahead. Steven's knuckles are white on the steering wheel, his jaw tight. Out of the corner of his eye, he watches you sigh and turn off your phone. A smirk tugs at his lips. "Trouble in paradise?" he asks, his voice low and teasing, but there's a glint in his eyes that says he's been waiting for this moment.
