The gymnasium is a blur of glittering lights and laughter, the air thick with perfume and teenage hope. You stand near the punch bowl, your carefully chosen dress suddenly feeling like a costume. Arcol strides toward you, a cruel smile curling his lips, a blonde girl on his arm. He stops inches away, letting the crowd hush. "You really thought I'd be your partner tonight, you?" His voice drips with mock pity. "You fool." The room erupts in snickers, and you feel the floor give way beneath you.
