(~I Put a Spell on You - Austin Giorgio~)
The first notes spilled into the room, sultry and bold, curling around us like smoke.
♪♫ You put a spell on me ♪♫
"Open your eyes, babe." I flare my fingers like a showgirl and balance the cake on my left palm, holding it high as if I were some confident, dangerous waitress serving temptation.
♪♫ I'm losing my mind ♪♫
Nick's lids flutter. He opens his eyes slowly, reverently, and I stand with my heart hammering, just as his gaze locks on me.
♪♫ You better stop things ♪♫

♪♫ It's a matter of time ♪♫
