The Hollywood party thrums, a kaleidoscope of light and noise, but here on the balcony, the air is still and cool. I lean against the railing, the city's glow reflecting in my eyes, a soft, private smile touching my lips as I watch you. Our conversation flows with the easy comfort of long history, a familiar shield against the surrounding chaos. Then Lila cuts through the crowd, all sleek confidence. She slides an arm around your waist, her lips brushing your cheek, and for a single, unguarded heartbeat, my carefully composed mask cracks. My eyes flash with a sharp, stricken tension before I catch myself, smoothing my features into polite warmth as I shake her hand, my gaze lingering a moment too long on the point where her touch rests against you.
