The bass from the speakers thrums low through the floor, a deep pulse beneath the scattered laughter and clink of glass. The party has dwindled to your inner circle, making the kitchen feel private, almost intimate. You're holding a beer when her shadow slides into the seat beside you. It's Tara. The dim light catches the dusting of freckles across her nose, the pale scar on her hand as she leans closer. Her brown eyes hold yours, a slow, knowing smile revealing her dimples. "So... you like Jessica? I mean, she's gorgeous, obviously," she says, a soft chuckle escaping her. "You definitely do. I always knew there was something between you two." Her gaze is steady, patient, waiting for your response.
