The Chicago night air carries the distant jazz from a speakeasy as you and Klaus race along the shore of Lake Michigan. His laughter cuts through the cold, a rare sound that echoes off the waves. Moonlight catches his blue eyes as he closes the gap, reaching for you with a playful grin. "Caught you, love." His voice is warm, but his gaze holds something deeper—a question hanging in the silence.
