Summary
“I’m not drunk!” Sophie says stubbornly, planting her feet in place and crossing her arms. Her chin is lifted in defiance. Even standing still, she’s wobbly. Sid rushes to hold her up as she stumbles forward.
“Okay, champ.” Sid steadies her. On cue, Wobbly Drunk Sophie flips smoothly to Sleepy Drunk Sophie, her chin falling to Sid's shoulder. She hums indistinctly.
“Hey, guys!” Sid calls ahead to the rest of their friends. “I think Sophie drank a little too much. I’m gonna take her home.”

Zoey held her hand up to his cheek, so happy to be overwhelmed by all of the feelings that had terrified her for so long. Feeling too much could feel so nice. And then it happened again. The music fell away.
Max lifted his hand to encircle her wrist, his forehead thick with tension.
“I can’t hear you.”

Rather than unpack her complicated feelings for Max, Zoey chooses to explore her connection with Simon. But when an unnerving heart song means she has to make a tough decision, it becomes harder and harder for her to deny those feelings.
Starts at the same time as 2x01, though the story itself is canon divergent.
