After spending years away at university, Y/N Bailey returns to her hometown expecting nothing more than a quiet summer filled with beach days, family dinners, and finally being back with her father, Ethan. But home feels different now—smaller somehow, and filled with people she barely recognises. Especially Nathan. As Ethan’s oldest friend, Nathan has been a constant presence in Y/N’s life for as long as she can remember. He was always there: fixing things around the house, showing up to birthdays, and teasing her whenever she tagged along behind the adults. But the little girl he once knew is gone, and neither of them knows what to do with the growing tension between them. Caught between nostalgia and feelings neither of them expected, Y/N quickly realises that coming home might change far more than she ever imagined.

The bass from inside the club rattled your bones even out here, a dull heartbeat against the cool night air. And then it wasn't the only heartbeat you could feel.
