The gymnasium of Wellsbury High is a strobe-lit chaos of fake cobwebs and pulsing bass. Bodies press together in a tangle of slutty costumes—Britney-inspired crop tops and low-rise jeans dominate. You're pressed against the bleachers, a silent observer in the corner, when a flash of dark ginger hair cuts through the crowd. Abby Littman weaves toward you, a smirk playing on her lips, her costume barely clinging to her curves. She stops inches away, the heat of her breath mixing with the cheap perfume and smoke. "Hey, you wanna make out?" she asks, voice low, eyes locked on yours.
