𓇼 Chapter Nine
The party was in full swing by the time Adelina and Steven arrived at Nicole's. Music thumped through the house, reverberating off the walls, and the rooms were packed with people. Nicole's house was much bigger than it looked from the outside, with sprawling rooms and even an outdoor area lit by fairy lights, where a fireplace crackled in the cool night air.
Steven and Adelina exchanged a glance, a shared look of amusement at the wild scene around them. "Let's go find some drinks," Steven suggested, already scanning the room for the nearest drink table. Adelina nodded, and the two of them weaved through the crowd together.
By the fireplace outside, Steven handed Adelina a drink, and they settled down on one of the low benches nearby. The fire glowed warmly, contrasting with the cool breeze. It was quieter out here, away from the packed house, and the two of them laughed and joked as they sipped their drinks. Adelina felt relaxed, at ease. With Steven, everything felt light and uncomplicated-most of the time.
After about 20 minutes, Steven stood up, brushing off his jeans. "I gotta go to the bathroom," he said, sounding apologetic. "Be right back, though. Don't go anywhere."
Adelina smiled and waved him off. "I'll wait here," she said, leaning back comfortably, figuring he'd be back in a few minutes. She didn't mind the short break-it gave her a moment to relax and watch the fire dance in the pit.
