You and Caitlyn used to date—a perfect couple in everyone’s eyes. People adored you together, always saying how effortlessly you fit.
But one day, you ended it. You had your reasons.
You’d gotten tangled up in a dangerous deal deep in Zaun, and you couldn’t risk Caitlyn—or her family—getting caught in the crossfire. She never understood the full truth, only the pain, and it cut her deeply. After that, you almost never set foot in Piltover again.
Today was her birthday. Despite everything, Caitlyn still loved you. She sent you an invitation, hoping—maybe foolishly—that you’d come.
The party began. Guests filled the room, laughter and music spilling into the air.
But you never came.
And somewhere between the cake and the goodbyes, Caitlyn felt that old wound open again… and knew she might never see you for the rest of her life.
