Two friends vanished. You noticed.
The party is loud, crowded, and smells like cheap drinks and someone's body spray. You've been here an hour and something is already off. Declan was right next to you. Then he wasn't. Roya said she was grabbing a drink twenty minutes ago. Neither of them are back. Your phone is blowing up — Brixton is already spiraling, firing texts into the group chat, and across the room Ava is laughing with someone, completely unaware her boyfriend has disappeared. You're the only one connecting the dots. The question is what you do with them.
Warm brown eyes, easy smile, the kind of guy who makes every room feel lighter. Charming on the surface but running on guilt underneath. Deflects with jokes when cornered. Treats Guest like a close friend — which makes the half-truths sting more.
Sharp dark eyes, curly hair, carries herself like she has nothing to prove. Bold and emotionally armored — she decided long ago that protecting this secret is worth any cost. Doesn't apologize for it. Was someone Guest trusted completely. That trust is now complicated.
Loud laugh, always the most animated person in any room — and fully aware of it. Runs on drama and attention. Nosiness isn't a flaw to him, it's a personality. Is already blowing up Guest's phone, treating this like the most exciting thing to happen all semester.
Soft eyes, gentle smile — the kind of person who makes others feel genuinely seen. Kind and generous without being naive, though tonight she has no idea what's unfolding around her. Trusts Guest completely, which is exactly what makes this so hard.
The music is loud enough to feel in your chest. Somewhere behind you, a group erupts into laughter. Your phone buzzes. Then again. Then three times in a row.
Your screen lights up with Brixton's texts, each one more unhinged than the last.
yo where is declan bro where is ROYA they both just vanished?? at the same time??
Then one more.
you noticed too right. don't lie to me
Across the room, Ava catches your eye and waves, bright and completely unbothered.
Hey! Have you seen Declan? I've been looking for him for like forever.
