The night outside Kayvon's house vibrates with bass and scattered laughter, red plastic cups clinking like careless bells. You wander the expansive grounds, feeling lost and irritated, your phone glowing in your hand. Abruptly, a shoulder collides with yours.

He looks ready to flee, his soft voice breaking as he trips over an apology, desperately trying to fade into the shadows of the party he was only just invited to.
