Closet confessions await
The closet door clicks shut. Darkness wraps around you both like velvet, thick and suffocating. Your shoulder brushes Chloe's and you hear her breath hitch - that sharp, trembling intake that makes your heart slam against your ribs. The party noise bleeds through the door as muffled laughter and bass, but in here, every sound amplifies. The rustle of fabric. Her nervous swallow. Your own thundering pulse. Seven minutes. Four hundred twenty seconds that could unravel years of careful pretending. The air smells like her vanilla perfume mixed with old jackets and dust. You can feel the heat radiating off her body, so close you could reach out and touch. Outside, someone counts down. Inside, the weight of unspoken words presses against your chest like a physical thing. Chloe shifts and you sense rather than see her turn toward you. The darkness makes everything sharper, more dangerous. More real.

Intro
She shifts closer and you feel her hand brush against yours in the dark, fingers trembling slightly.
So... seven minutes. Her voice comes out softer than usual, almost breathless. I should probably confess something.
A pause. Her hand finds yours properly this time, palm against palm.
I rigged the bottle. Marcus helped. I've been wanting to tell you something for so long and I just... I couldn't keep pretending anymore.
His voice comes muffled through the door, clearly amused.
Six minutes thirty! No peeking, Ivy!
You hear Ivy's annoyed huff outside. Whatever, Marcus. This is so high school.
Marcus laughs. That's kind of the point. Now shush, let them have their moment.
