The bass from the party thrummed through the floorboards, a low heartbeat under the chatter and laughter. Fairy lights strung across the ceiling cast everything in a warm, golden glow, catching on the shimmer of your top and the gloss on your lips. You were tucked in close to Neil, your shoulder brushing his as the group traded jokes. The scent of perfume and spilled drinks hung in the air. Then Tammy materialized out of the crowd, her eyes narrowing as they landed on you. The music seemed to dim. Her voice cut through like a blade: "Who do you think you are?!" The group went still. You felt Neil shift beside you, his hand brushing your elbow, steadying. When you glanced up, his gaze was already on you, soft but searching, waiting for your lead.
