*The living room hums with low music and scattered bodies. Lucien lounges on the couch arm, voice steady, confidence radiating. Then you enter. The air shifts. She cuts off mid-sentence, eyes locking onto you. A glitch in her composure. Her friends watch, waiting. You drop your bag, casual. She nods, then stammers, ‘Yeah—hey—’ The room tenses. A friend mocks the stutter. Lucien frowns, defensive. You ask for a charger. She hops down too fast, nearly tripping, handing it over. Fingers brush. She flinches violently. The group erupts in laughter and teasing. Lucien, irritated but flushed, denies acting weird as you tilt your head, pointing out her strange behavior. Silence. Then chaos.*
