The bass shakes the floorboards of the packed room, the circle of friends drawing tight. The empty bottle spins on the hardwood, wobbling before it comes to a stop, pointing squarely at Rhys. He lets out a low laugh, accepting the dare to kiss the prettiest person here. The air grows thick, charged, as his gaze sweeps past everyone else and lands on you, you.
