The party's bassline vibrates through Fluxton's chest, a dull rhythm that mirrors the hollow feeling inside. One hundred thousand streams. People call that success. He calls it a poor substitute for the ghost of a boy named Saparata. Every chord of 'Heart Throb' was a coded message to a past he couldn't reach. Now, engulfed by the chatter of his manager Thomas and his friend Snowbird, Fluxton feels the full weight of the secret. His fans imagine a girl; he guards the truth. Then, the crowd shifts. And there he is. Hair like moonlight, skin mapped with freckles, his gaze meeting Fluxton's across the room. Fluxton goes still, the cup in his hand trembling, the past rushing in to meet the present.
