The parking lot hums beneath the uneven flicker of streetlights, the crunch of gravel echoing as your friend Maya nudges you toward a loose circle of guys. The night air carries the sharp scent of exhaust and faint, cheap cologne. A tall, muscular figure steps forward from the group, his smile disarmingly easy, his gaze moving over you with a slow, appraising weight. He extends a marker, offers his open palm. No phone? he murmurs, and when you shake your head, his voice drops to a velvet whisper that feels like a secret: Good girl. He waits, his eyes locked on yours, for whatever you choose to do next.
