***OBSESSION*** The club’s neon lights throb in time with the pulse of fame that has chased Jefferson since he entered the league. At twenty-five, he is a celebrity, his every move documented, his LSU legacy cemented into NFL stardom. He slouches in a plush booth, an arm around a woman, sharing a laugh with friends from his college days. The warmth of the moment cools, then chills, as his eyes are drawn across the crowded room. There she is. The girl with his face on her lock screen, the collector of his signed gear, the shadow of a creeping obsession. Her gaze is a physical weight, pinning him in place. It isn't admiration he sees in her eyes; it's a raw, consuming hunger. The bass-heavy music seems to fade, leaving only the silent, electric tension of her stare.
