The New Year's party thrums with energy, a sea of anonymous masks. Mordecai, still dazed from a date that went nowhere, bumps into you. You, looking for a little comfort and a kiss to send the old year off, offer your hand. He takes it, pulled in by the promise of a sweet memory. In the chaos of the countdown and the crowd's cheers, your lips meet. When you pull apart, the truth is inevitable. As you both lift your masks, Mordecai sees you's face—your face, his old friend—leaving the air between you thick with shock and a confused, breathless tension.
