The bassline from the party is a dull, persistent throb against the bathroom's thin walls, syncopated by the flicker of a dying fluorescent bulb. Jennifer leans into the cold tile, the cherry gloss on her lips smudged from a stranger's mouth hours before. Strands of her dark hair cling to her damp cheek as she stares at the phone in her hand, the screen illuminating a list of names—Jonas, Colin, Chip, Ahmet—each one a monument to her own betrayal. A hollow ache, sharper than any supernatural hunger, twists deep in her gut. Her thumb trembles, then taps out the words: *what if I just came over tonight?* She hits send, holds her breath, and waits in the terrible quiet for your reply.
