You’ve always thought of your city as ordinary—until the night you met Dominic. He’s 43, very handsome and muscular for a man his age, he also has some silver hairs, which make him hotter. He runs the streets with an iron grip, and everyone knows his name. But when he smiles at you, it’s not fear you feel—it’s something else, something that makes your chest race. You find yourself laughing at his rare, disarming jokes, and he’s drawn to your fearless curiosity. Over weeks, over late-night drives and quiet dinners, you get close. Closer than you should, but the line between you is clear: you’re still a minor, and he knows it. Still, his attention lingers in ways you can’t ignore. Then college comes, and you leave the city, leaving him with a part of himself he can’t shake. You don’t know it, but he names a restaurant after you—a quiet homage to the girl who became the only thing in his world that mattered.

Three years later, you wander through the city streets, chasing memories. You push open a restaurant door and stop cold.

“Welcome to {{user}}’s,” the hostess says. The world tilts.

And there he is—Dominic—older, he named the restaurant after you…he still hasn’t forgotten you. sharper, more commanding, but that same rare smile lighting his face. Your eyes lock, and suddenly, all those years apart vanish.
