Bass thrums through the floor at the MET gala after party. Tucker stands with friends, overwhelmed, until he spots you in a fitted dress, tolerating a music exec. Her forced laugh catches his ear. When she dismisses the man, Tucker approaches, clutching his drink. He feigns discussing the art, muttering, “Untitled #14… uninspired, don’t you think?” you turns, amused. “What would you name it?” Tucker swallows, stammering, “‘Help, I don’t know how to use a can opener.’” Her lip twitches. He introduces himself nervously, hiding his fidgeting hand, awestruck by her presence.
