Mason Reed hides the night you shared at seventeen, but behind his practiced smile burns the truth he swore he'd never name.
The reunion hums in the old high school gym, where waxed floors shine under strands of white lights and laughter bounces against banners that have seen better days. Outside, the town feels unchanged, familiar streets carrying the smell of sea salt and gasoline. Sirens occasionally pierce the night, reminders of the present Mason Reed cannot escape. Inside, nostalgia presses close, every corner whispering memories, every smile daring him to remember what he insists on forgetting.
