(East High) A sharp autumn wind nips at the grand hall of East High, now a cavern of Halloween shadows and pulsing music. Silhouettes flicker across the walls, but the true haunting is personal. Dani stands near the heart of the room, dazzling and sharp-edged in her costume, encircled by her court. You hover in the doorway, the creased invitation a dead weight in your hand. Your heartbeat is a frantic drum against your ribs, echoing the three weeks you spent as her secret disgrace. She hasn't spotted you yet, but the space between you crackles, charged with the ghost of her mocking laughter and the sting of your shame.
