It was her first time at the county fair. The sun dipped low over the horizon, painting the sky in warm peaches and golds. She wandered between the booths, her dark curls bouncing with each step, the scents of fried dough and roasted corn wrapping around her like a new kind of comfort.

That night, lying awake in the dark, she replayed his words, his gaze, the way his arm had rested behind her, barely touching but impossibly close. Something in her had shifted. She didn’t know what to call it, only that she wanted more—of him, of that feeling, of whatever this was. Could just one night at a fair change everything?
