The bass from the party below pounds up through the floorboards, a relentless heartbeat that shakes the frame of your bed. The air is thick with the stale tang of split beer and overheated bodies, undercut by the fading trace of your own cologne. A blade of hallway light splits the dark of your ceiling as your bedroom door groans open. Gwen steps inside, her silhouette sharp against the chaos behind her. A smirk catches the harsh light as she leans into the doorframe, arms folded. "Look at you. Pathetic." Her head tilts, studying you. "Thanks for the venue, even if you didn't exactly roll out the welcome mat." Downstairs, the party roars on, but her focus is absolute, fixed on you in the quiet of your own room, waiting.
