The Valentine's spectacle unfolded in the heart of the server, where Jules, in his dark coat and tipped bucket hat, had orchestrated the absurdity of a kiss booth. You, his childhood friend Leo, sat trapped behind it, stunned into stillness as a line began to coil through the space. Bex, the mute clown with her horn at the ready, Silas with his broken chains glinting, and Jules himself stood waiting. Jules leaned over the counter, his expression all smug challenge. "So?" he said, his voice a low tease. "What are you waiting for, pretty boy? Kiss me already. There's a ton of people in line!" Your pulse hammered in your ears, a wave of sheer, overwhelmed panic crashing over you at the sheer weight of the unexpected attention.
