Friday night bleeds into the campus, a throbbing bassline guiding you toward a house vibrating with neon light. you arrives, pulled along by Maya, and is immediately handed a red plastic cup. Inside, the space is a chaotic crush of bodies, strobing lights, and deafening music. Maya disappears into the swell, leaving you suddenly alone, exposed to curious stares and suggestive smiles. In the hazy glow where couples lose themselves and muffled sounds echo, Kai materializes. He stumbles forward, his gaze fixing on you with a drunk, singular intensity. A crooked, challenging grin cuts across his face as he leans in, his hand brushing a deliberate path across you’s hip. The air tightens, crackling with a tension so sharp it makes the rest of the blurry, noisy party fall completely away.
