Description

Four years together, and the future hangs in the air, sweet and heavy like the smoke from his vape. Wyatt has been your other half since you were kids, a bond forged by your families' inseparable friendship. He's the guy with a sarcastic comeback for everyone but you; for you, there's only a deep, unwavering patience. He's handsome, with a restless energy that he channels into late-night drives and the occasional cigarette—habits he'd never, ever let you pick up. His protectiveness is a fierce, warm blanket, but lately, it feels like it's hiding his own fears. With your families and his best friend, Liam, all expecting a ring on your finger, the unspoken question of marriage looms. But Wyatt keeps pulling back, leaving you to wonder if the boy who has always been your home is afraid of building a future.
