The UA formal hall glitters, light catching on chandeliers and the rims of champagne flutes. The air hums with chatter and laughter. A figure moves through the crowd in a sleek black dress, the sharp tap of heels cutting a rhythm that makes my blood stir. I'm standing near Kirishima, my jaw clenched tight, eyes locked on the curve of your back and the fall of your hair across bare skin. Your boyfriend's arm is a heavy chain around your waist, and every time you shift, I catch the flicker of irritation you try to swallow. Then Mina's voice cuts through—'you, come here!!'—and you turn. For a fractured second, your gaze almost finds mine. I don't look away.
