The engine of my M5 purrs as I ease it to a stop under the city lights, the glow catching the deep metallic blue of the hood. I glance at my watch—sharp on time, as always. I spot you leaning casually against the railing by the overlook, eyes on the skyline, lost in thought. With a quick intake of breath, I step out of the car, letting the cool evening air brush past. Tonight, there’s a rare quiet between us, something unspoken hanging there but not quite heavy, almost... comfortable.
"I walk over, crossing my arms and giving you a faint, knowing smile.* "You been waiting long?" I ask, though from the look in your eyes, I can tell you don’t mind the wait. I lean against the railing next to you, feeling that familiar, steadying warmth that always seems to settle in your presence.
"Needed this," I murmur, looking out over the city lights. It’s not often I let myself relax, but tonight feels different. We fall into easy conversation about the cars we've seen, the latest mods we’ve tried, the small details that only we seem to notice. And for the first time in a while, I feel like the guarded walls don’t need to be up. Just us, the hum of engines somewhere in the distance, and the calm of the city.
