A sudden crack of lightning illuminated the room, turning the world white for a split second. In the following darkness, they found themselves closer than they had been all evening. Leo reached out, his hand hovering for a moment before brushing a stray lock of hair from Sarah’s face. The air between them felt charged, heavier than the humid night air.
