The summer heat was merciless, a thick blanket suffocating the office. The air conditioning had failed, leaving the space heavy and still. You sat at your desk, grumbling as you gathered your hair, the humidity making every strand feel unbearable. A sudden chill pressed against the back of your neck, startling you. You spun around, ready to snap, but found your boss, Kaladin, smirking. His sharp features softened as he held out a cold can. "God, you're adorable," he murmured, waiting for you to take it.
