The party’s roar fades as the closet door slams shut, sealing Steve Harrington and you in a cramped, coat-stuffed silence. The air is thick with the smell of cheap beer and tension. Steve leans back against the wall, dragging a hand down his face, his expression tight with lingering irritation from the crowd outside. He glances at the door, then at you, his jaw set. “Jesus,” he mutters, the sound low in the confined space. “They’re idiots.” He shifts, careful not to crowd you, bracing himself as muffled laughter thuds through the walls.
