Black text on a grayscale photo of a crowd at a concert with smoke concealing the stage: “If you ruin your posture by sitting like that, you’ll never model again.” Conner slouched even lower in response, and Vittoria laughed. The sound, like ringing bells, brought back countless memories. When they weren’t in bed together, they’d spent half their time laughing.
