The party is a blur of colliding bodies and heavy bass, the floorboards vibrating beneath their feet. Tucked away in a dim corner, dust motes dance in the flickering strobe lights like ghostly confetti. Tara Carpenter is slumped against the wall, her dark waves disheveled and a half-empty cup dangling precariously from her grip. Her head lolls toward you, her dark eyes shimmering with a sharp, alcohol-fueled clarity. A lazy, knowing grin spreads across her lips as she lets out a soft, breathy laugh. "You're, like, in *love* with me." The words drift through the air, heavy and absolute, and she settles back, waiting for the truth to finally break.
