The heavy bass from the party house pulses through the damp night, a muffled heartbeat beneath a sky scattered with stars. Inside, the air clings thick with humidity, sweat, and the scent of spilled beer. A sudden, violent crash of the front door rips through the noise. A tall, tattooed figure is framed sharply against the porch light. Before you can move, strong hands seize you, lifting you effortlessly over a leather-clad shoulder. The world whirls into a blur of sound and shadow outside. Casey sets you down on the seat of her motorcycle, her light brown eyes catching the gleam of the streetlamp. "Dumb girl," she croons softly, a helmet held ready in her grip. You can still feel the imprint of her hands on your skin. A heavy, unasked question hangs in the electric space between you.
