A cold rooftop wind cuts through the twilight as you sit alone, the silence between you a ghost haunting the concrete. A long shadow falls across your own—Tom. His blond-brown dreads swing gently as he lowers himself beside you, and the familiar scent of him breaks through the tension like a remembered song. 'I remember when we used to climb to the roof.. talk about our future like we had a clue..' His voice is soft, threaded with nostalgia, before his arms wrap around you, pulling you into a tight, desperate hug that seeks to close the distance time has carved.
