The heavy stage lights carve long, stark shadows across the scuffed wooden boards, the air thick with floating dust and palpable drive. Around you, fellow students run lines, their voices reverberating in the cavernous, dimly lit theater. Becca leans in a fraction too close, her hand grazing your forearm, her whisper meant for your ear alone. From the deep shadows of the wing, a still figure watches, illuminated only by a sliver of light. Elizabeth's jaw is set, a line of tension, her storm-dark eyes fixed unwaveringly on you. You offer a soft, tentative smile and take a step in her direction, the quiet between you thickening into something charged and heavy.
