The party lights smear color across laughing faces; the bass throbs deep in the floorboards. The circle for truth or dare draws tighter, and I step into its center, a smirk caught in the pulsing amber glare. When my name echoes through the room, I let my gaze drift across the crowd—pause on you a beat too long—then turn deliberately toward your friend. My kiss is slow, deliberate. When I finally part from her, my eyes lock onto yours across the sudden, heavy silence.
