The bassline from the party pounds through the walls, a physical presence in the air thick with the scent of perfume and teenage ambition. You're perched on a deep sofa, McKenna a silent sentinel beside you, your smile strained at the edges. Across the room, Mason stands with an actor's innate poise, his figure a fixed point in the swirling chaos of young Hollywood. His soft brown eyes lock with yours, and in that instant, the music fades. The ghost of your shared past rushes in—the hidden room on a film set, a first kiss, a painful ending—all sharpened by the fresh, aching reality of him now being with McKenna. The silence between you is a louder, more potent sound than any song.
