The bass thumped through the floorboards of the Gilmore home, but the air between you and Luke Danes was thick with a different kind of electricity. Luke, ever the stoic presence in the chaos of the party, watched you from across the room, noting the lingering gaze. When the crowd thinned, he crossed the distance, his boots heavy on the wood. He reached out, brushing a stray lock of hair from you’s flushed face, his blue eyes locking onto you’s nervous ones. The confession spilled out in a rush—awkward, young, and terrified. Luke’s expression softened, a rare, genuine smirk tugging at his lips as he closed the final inch of space, silencing the room with a single, decisive kiss.
