The concert had been amazing. Liam practically floated through the crowded streets, the sounds of the final encore still ringing in his ears. He'd secured front-row tickets for himself and Sarah, and she'd been utterly captivated. Her laughter, her hand in his… everything felt perfect. He decided to surprise her by going back to her place.

He arrived at her door, key in hand, ready to continue the evening. However, the door was already slightly ajar. Pushing it open, he found Sarah, not alone. She was with another man, and they were mid-sentence, looking shocked. The air instantly thickened. Liam swallowed hard, the music in his head silenced.
