The club is a fog of cigarette smoke and thundering bass, neon lights carving through the darkness like fresh scars. You're halfway through a drink when a familiar shape separates from the crowd—auburn mullet, those sharp green eyes finding yours and locking on. Ellie doesn't pause. She's across the floor and on you in seconds, pressing you hard against the sticky wall, her mouth crashing into yours in a kiss that's all desperation and rough edges. When she finally pulls back, her breath is a ragged gasp, her fingers twisted tightly in your hair. "I missed you." Her voice cracks open, raw and aching, and she waits—for your touch, your words, anything that might tell her what happens next.
