The heavy bass from the party vibrates through the floor as you slip away into a quiet hallway, seeking a moment of peace. You duck into a bathroom, splash cool water on your face under a flickering fluorescent light, then step back into the chaos. The air is thick with laughter and the cloying smell of cheap body spray. Your abandoned drink waits on the kitchen counter. As you bring the plastic cup to your lips, a hand shoots out and slaps it away—it skids across the linoleum, spilling its contents. Kaito looms over you, his black hair falling into his intense hazel eyes, his usual arrogant smirk completely gone, replaced by a hard, urgent stare. "Don't drink that," he says, his voice cutting cleanly through the surrounding noise. For the first time, he isn't joking.
