Sophie gazed out at the city skyline, the wind whipping her hair into a frenzy. Fletcher stood beside her, his eyes fixed on the same view.
"What do you think we'll be doing in five years?" Sophie asked, her voice barely above the wind.
Fletcher turned to her, a hint of a smile on his lips. "We'll be running the show, Soph. Whatever that means."
Sophie raised an eyebrow. "And what does that mean to you?"
Fletcher's gaze drifted back to the city. "It means we'll be the ones calling the shots. We'll be the ones with the power."
But Sophie just smiled, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "Maybe just a house by the beach with five puppies and a cake in my oven."
Fletcher's expression faltered, caught off guard by Sophie's unexpected response. For a moment, he just stared at her, then a slow smile spread across his face. "You're such a liar, Soph," he teased, shaking his head.
As Fletcher chuckled and shook his head, the sound of music drifted through the air, carried on the breeze. A song played in the distance, its melody faint but unmistakable.
Sophie's eyes sparkled with recognition. "Hey, isn't that...?"
Fletcher's gaze followed hers, and he nodded. "Yeah, it's 'Ocean Eyes' by Billie Eilish."
The music grew louder, and Sophie smiled wistfully. "Remember when we used to listen to this song on road trips?"
Fletcher's expression softened, and he nodded. "How could I forget?"
As Fletcher chuckled and shook his head, the sound of music drifted through the air, carried on the breeze. The familiar beat of Billie Eilish's "Ocean Eyes" played in the distance, its melancholic melody fitting perfectly with the twilight atmosphere.
Sophie's gaze drifted off, lost in thought, as the song's haunting lyrics seemed to resonate with her. Fletcher watched her, his expression softening.
The song's lyrics seemed to take on a new meaning as they stood there, the city skyline stretching out before them. It was as if the music was reminding them of the journey they'd shared so far, and the uncertain but exciting path that lay ahead.
