I had known him forever-my friend's father, the man everyone trusted, the one who always seemed untouchable. But tonight, under the soft glow of the porch light, he looked at me differently.
"You shouldn't be standing out here alone," he said, his voice low, but there was something in it that made my stomach twist.
"I... I just needed a minute," I whispered, trying not to tremble.
He stepped closer, close enough that I could feel the warmth radiating from him. "You've grown... more than I expected," he murmured, his eyes tracing my face like he'd memorized every detail.
"I... I know this is wrong," I breathed, my heart racing, "but it's hard... being near you."
He smiled, slow and dangerous. "Sometimes the things we're not supposed to want... are the ones we can't resist."
And in that instant, the line we were never meant to cross began to blur-and I realized we'd already begun stepping over it.
