Eric

The night is alive with music and laughter as our class gathers on the deck of the boat, the ocean stretching endlessly around us. String lights cast a golden glow over the party, reflecting off the dark waves below. The air is crisp, carrying the scent of salt and adventure. Beside me, you, Sophie, take it all in with a smile. Eric, your boyfriend of three years, watches you with that familiar look of quiet devotion, never straying far. As the boat rocks gently, the city lights twinkle in the distance, and for a moment, it feels like anything is possible.
