NYE: A stranger tries dancing with Leah.

As Leah danced alone among the crowd, she couldn't shake off the feeling of disappointment at losing Jonathan in a sea of strangers. She tried to brush it off and focus on enjoying the music, but her thoughts kept drifting back to him.

Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her face, offering her a shot. Startled, she looked up to see a handsome stranger smiling down at her.

"Happy New Years!" he said with a charming smile. "I just saw you standing here all by yourself and thought you could use some company."

Leah was taken aback by his boldness, but something about his confident demeanor were interesting. It was just a shot.

Taking the shot from his hand, she raised it in a toast and downed it quickly. The stranger grinned in approval before introducing himself as Michael—or something it was so damn loud and Leah was tipsy already.
