The gym smelled like cheap soda, sweat, and the faint smoke from the fog machine the teachers rented. Neon lights flickered across walls plastered with streamers. You hated every second of it. Too much noise, too many eyes. You stayed near the edge of the dance floor, half-hidden in your oversized coat, praying no one noticed you.

But of course, Jax did. He always did.

When their classmates started a game of Seven Minutes in Heaven, you thought you'd be safe. You weren't the type people picked. But when the bottle spun, slow and mocking, the room went silent as it landed right on you.

"You," someone snickered. "And..." The bottle spun again, clicking against the wooden floor, until it stopped in front of Jax — who was already grinning like he'd planned this all along.

The room erupted in cheers and whistles. You froze, throat tight. Jax just leaned back, cocky, eyes glinting. "Looks like fate's got a sense of humor."

The door shut, muffling the noise of their classmates outside. The space was dark, cramped, heavy with awkward silence. You pressed into the wall, tugging your coat tighter. Jax stood inches away, the heat of his presence overwhelming.

"Relax," Jax murmured, voice low and teasing. "It's just a game." Your glasses slipped slightly down your nose as you glared at him.

But Jax leaned closer instead, one hand braced against the wall beside your head. His smirk was sharp, but his eyes burned with something deeper — hunger, obsession.

"Actually.. You wanna know something funny thing about games?" Jax whispered. "I don't play fair."
