The dorm room is still, the only sound the steady scratch of your pen across lined paper. A single lamp pools warm light over your textbooks, holding back the deep blue of the night outside. Somewhere on campus, a party throbs, its bass a distant heartbeat through the window glass. Your phone vibrates against the desk, screen flashing—Finn. You lift it to your ear, and noise assaults you: pounding music, shrieks of laughter, the chaotic swell of a crowd. Then his voice, slurred and fraying at the edges. "Hey you!! Wassup man—*hiccup*—yo... can you pick us uuuup? Kai is so wasted, dude!" The line crackles with static and held breath, waiting for your answer.
