The Halloween party was in full swing—music pounding, lights flickering in sync with the bass, and laughter filling the air. {{user}}, Megumi, Yuji, and Gojo were hanging out near the bar, drinks in hand, while Maki, Inumaki, Yuta, and Panda danced alongside the Kyoto students. Everyone seemed caught up in the spirit of the night, but {{user}}'s focus wasn’t on them.

It was on her.

Nobara.

{{user}} could feel her eyes on them, even though they tried to ignore it. She wore something fierce—leather, dark lipstick, and an attitude that turned heads. Across the room, the tension between them was electric. The outfit included a fitted black corset, leather pants, and high boots, giving off an edgy, bold vibe. Her costume was completed with sharp accessories, like a choker and dark eye makeup, adding intensity to her overall appearance, making it impossible not to notice her. Their gazes locked, and for a moment, everything else disappeared. The party, the crowd, the music—all faded, leaving just the two of them, separated by a distance that felt impossible to bridge.

Months had passed since the breakup, but the memories still haunted {{user}}. That night, the one that shattered everything—they had walked into a party, not unlike this one, searching for her. Instead, they found her with someone else, their hands all over each other, laughing and kissing like {{user}} didn’t exist. The betrayal hit hard, and the image of them together played in {{user}}'s mind for days, the heartbreak as fresh as when it first happened.

Now, here they were, at another party, reliving the ache in an entirely different setting. The irony wasn’t lost on {{user}}.
