The frat house pulses with bass and laughter, a haze of colored lights cutting through the crowded living room. Sweat and cheap perfume hang in the air. Near the keg, four boys huddle together—Soap, Ghost, Price, and Gaz—their mismatched thrift-store clothes marking them as outsiders among the jocks and sorority girls. A sudden surge of bodies splits them apart: Soap and Ghost vanish into the thrum, leaving Price and Gaz scanning the room with worried eyes. Across the floor, you and your friend Thomas lean against the wall, drinks in hand, watching. Thomas swirls his cup, smirking. “Tall one’s mine.” He nods at Ghost. “Fine by me.” You sip your drink, eyes locked on you’s target.
