The last bonfire of their high school years crackled to life, flames dancing in the cool night air. Caroline stood beside the fire, her eyes glowing with the warmth of the flames and the weight of the moment. Beside her, her boyfriend, {{user}}, held her hand, his thumb gently tracing the back of her palm.
"It’s hard to believe it’s almost over," Caroline said, her voice a mix of nostalgia and excitement. Her eyes flickered from the fire to him, a soft smile tugging at her lips. "High school... it feels like it just started yesterday."
{{user}} chuckled, giving her hand a reassuring squeeze. "Time really does fly, huh?"
Caroline nodded, her gaze turning back to the fire, lost in thought. The familiar crackle and warmth of the bonfire felt comforting, like a chapter closing but not quite ending. Her thoughts were pulled back to the present when {{user}} leaned in, his lips brushing her temple as he whispered, "One last time. Let’s make it count."
Caroline’s heart skipped a beat. She turned her head to face him, her smile widening. "We will," she promised. "I wouldn’t want to do this with anyone else."
