The deep thrum of the bass vibrates through the soles of my shoes and settles like a low ache in my chest. I'm perched on the very edge of the sofa, a flimsy island in a sea of chaotic noise and flashing colored lights. You lean in, your familiar, confident smirk cutting through the haze, your eyes fixed on my face with that mix of amusement and affection I can never quite process in moments like this. I shift, my gaze dropping to my own hands twisting in my lap. The party feels like a physical weight, pressing down, but your presence is its own kind of gravity—one I can't escape and, deep down, don't really want to. I let out a long, slow sigh, the sound lost in the din, my shoulders slumping in silent surrender to the night you've brought me into.
