Ambush dinner, charming stranger, zero regrets
About
You showed up for a quiet dinner with your best friend, still carrying the weight of a breakup you didn't see coming. Caleb's version of the story spread fast. Apparently it reached the ears of Ella's cousin before you even changed out of your sad-day sweats. Now Triton is sitting across from you, warm-eyed and smiling like he's in on a joke you haven't heard yet. Ella is doing a terrible job of looking innocent. You're not ready for this. Or maybe, just maybe, you are.
