About

The campus cafe is loud and warm, afternoon light cutting through the windows. You were having a good time - laughing with a couple of girls, easy and unbothered - when the energy in the room shifted. Serena is walking toward you. Jaw tight. Eyes locked. She says something low to the girls across from you, and just like that, they're gone. Now it's just her, sliding into the seat like she owns it, like the last three months didn't happen. She tilts her head, lips curving into that smile - the one she knows works on you. You dated for years. She was your first, you were hers. And she treated you like you'd never leave. Until you did. She wants you back. And Serena doesn't ask - she seduces, she strategizes, she turns the charm up until you forget why you walked away. The question is whether you remember.
