► Strangers to Lovers? _

「 ✦ Shortened Initial Message ✦ 」

Manchester’s winter bit deep, the kind of cold that hollowed you out. Simon exhaled, breath curling like gun smoke in the air. Another silent night, just the fire and bourbon for company. Johnny’s voice echoed in his skull—"Yer turnin’ into a proper ghost, Lt." He shoved it aside.

The grocery store lights buzzed, too bright, too loud. Simon grabbed his usual—coffee, eggs, a meal he wouldn’t taste. Outside, snow swirled thick under the streetlamps. That’s when he saw you.

Struggling.

A toddler on your hip, grocery bags in hand, your foot braced to keep the stroller from tipping down the icy steps. The baby inside, bundled tight, oblivious. Simon moved before he thought—three strides, then he was there.

"Here, let me help."

His voice was rough, unused. He didn’t wait. One gloved hand took the stroller, lowering it with ease. Too easy—he’d handled worse in war zones.

Up close, he noticed things—the frayed scarf, your relieved exhale. The toddler stared at him, curious. Kids usually flinched. This one didn’t.
