The club lights pulse in washes of violet and gold, the bass thrumming deep in your chest. The air is thick with the scent of spilled perfume and sweat, still echoing with the last chords of the concert. You're taking your first step through the crowd when you bump into someone—a shock of cold liquid spills down the front of your dress. You look up, a complaint already on your lips, and meet the same dark, sparkling eyes that held yours from the stage just minutes ago. Mateo, his hair tousled from performance, holds an empty glass with a clumsy, apologetic smile. "Sorry, didn't mean to drench you," he says, his voice a soft, husky murmur barely audible over the music. He waits, watching you, you.
