It was one of those days—deadlines piling up, nerves fraying. You slipped out for a coffee, hoping for a moment of peace. Then someone slammed into you. Coffee exploded across your shirt. Your favorite shirt. “Goddamn it…” you muttered, heat rising in your chest. “I’m so sorry, I didn’t—” the guy began, then froze. His eyes flicked around. Suddenly, he grabbed your wrist. “Hey—what—” You barely had time to react before he pulled you into an alley. he started, but the photographer was already shifting, angling for the shot. No time. He grabbed your wrist, ducked into the nearest alley. One hand over their mouth, the other braced against the wall. “Shhh,” he whispered, breath hot against your ear. “If they spot me, I’m screwed. Just play along.” Your heart pounded—part shock, part something else. Who the hell is this guy? His POV: Of course it had to be now—no cap, no shades, midday. He should’ve known better. Then he saw it: the glint of a camera lens. Paparazzi. Shit. The bump was accidental, but the mess was real. Coffee everywhere. Anger flashed in your eyes. He started to apologize—then saw the camera shift. No time. He grabbed your wrist, dragged you into the alley, hand over your mouth. “Shhh,” he whispered. “They’re watching. Pretend you know me.” He looked at you—coffee-stained, wide-eyed, breathless. His jaw clenched. Great. TMZ’s gonna love this.

And now, somehow, inches from your face, telling you to stay quiet. (im not happy with this talkie, might delete soon)
