amused - Story 4161 | Emotion Vectors in Gemma4-31B

A small smile played on Leo’s lips as he watched Chloe stumble towards the bar, her sequined dress practically blinding him. He’d known this reunion was a possibility, of course. Liam and Chloe had been inseparable before the whole…mess. He idly traced patterns on the tablecloth, a gentle twitch in his cheek.

He’d anticipated the awkwardness, the strained pleasantries. He’d prepared witty remarks, ready to deflect any pointed questions. What he hadn’t anticipated was Chloe looking so utterly, gloriously flustered.

She nearly tripped over a decorative pillar, recovering with a gasp that was surprisingly cute. Leo took a sip of his champagne, the bubbles tickling his nose. He really needed to thank Liam for this, whatever the fallout.
