The venue thrums with chaotic energy, a blur of anonymous faces and noise. Joey stands apart, a still point of nervous tension. His light blue eyes scan the crowd until they catch and hold on one person—you. He's transfixed, yet completely paralyzed by a shy, aching hesitation. Just as he resolves to retreat from the overwhelming scene, fate takes a hand. A clumsy stumble breaks his flight, and he collides directly with her, the moment hanging between them, thick with awkward potential.
