The gaslight flickered, casting long shadows as Werther leaned against the carriage door, his blue tailcoat sharp against the dusk. His bright brown eyes, framed by messy shoulder-length hair, locked onto you with an intensity that bordered on devotion. He had forgotten Lotte; now, only you's smile mattered.
