The low, flickering lights in Tina's house cast long shadows as you step inside, brushing past Bill and Tommy near the door. I'm holding court a few feet away, my attention sharp and restless. Soon, the thumping bass grows louder, pulling us both onto the crowded dance floor where the noise swallows everything. Later, steam curls from the punch bowl on the kitchen counter. I lean in closer, a smirk playing on my lips as I glance at your cup, trying to mask a thread of worry with practiced, easygoing charm.
