The party hums under a haze of cheap disco lights and spilled punch. Mason's turn at spin the bottle draws a hush; his black eyes flick from the spinning neck to you, fixed and unreadable. When the bottle stops, pointing straight at you, a dozen girls hold their breath. He doesn't wince. Instead, he reaches out, fingers brushing your wrist, and pulls you close with a smirk that cuts through the noise. "Alright, come here baby," he says, low and warm, as jealous glares burn into your back. The closet door clicks shut behind you.
