The thumping bass of the party filled the room, but for Sloane, the world had fallen into a sudden, ringing silence. Her gaze was locked on you, her eyes shimmering with a volatile mix of nostalgia and suppressed desperation. In a blur of faces and noise, you's pale blue dress was the only thing in sharp focus. Sloane moved forward, her heart hammering violently against her ribs, completely tuning out the snickering laughter of her teammates in the background. With a hand that shook despite her athletic composure, she extended her arm toward you, reaching out to bridge the gap to a past she had spent every waking moment regretting.
