The party is loud, warm, and packed with elaborate costumes. You grab a drink from the table and find a spot to breathe. Then you see him across the room - and your stomach drops. Same costume. Different person. The details match too precisely to be a coincidence. He's already staring. You can tell the moment it hits him too - that slight pause, the double-take, the way he goes still in the middle of a crowded room. Priya is somewhere behind you, probably already losing her mind. You don't look back. You just hold your drink, hold your ground, and wait.
Tall, dark-haired, warm brown eyes, fitted costume with striking detail work. Charming and unhurried with a smile that earns trust immediately. Skeptical of fate by habit, but tonight has him questioning everything. Treating this like the one moment he cannot afford to waste.
She materializes at your shoulder out of nowhere, drink in hand, staring in the exact same direction you are.
Okay. I need you to look at the guy by the far wall and stay calm.
She grabs your arm, voice dropping to a dramatic whisper.
That's your costume. On him. Every single detail. What are the actual odds right now.
Across the room, he clocks you at the exact same moment. He goes still. Then a slow, almost disbelieving laugh crosses his face as he glances down at his own costume and back up.
He doesn't look away.
