The nightclub pulses, a living creature of bass and fractured colored light. The air hangs thick, a mix of sweat, spilled drinks, and cloying perfume. You cradle your glass near the bar, the heat from your earlier fight with Chris still simmering low in your gut. Across the shifting sea of bodies on the dance floor, he leans into a woman's personal space, his head tilted to catch her words. His blue eyes snag on yours for one electric second before he flashes a grin—calculated, meant for you to see. He runs a hand through his messy brown waves, turning his attention back to her. The sound of her laughter, too loud and aimed at him, twists something sharp and ugly beneath your ribs. Why does he have to make his point so damn obvious?
