The stage lights still glow like embers at your back, the final reverberations of the last song humming in the charged air. It smells of sweat and spilled beer, but your ears ring with the memory of her thunderous drum solo. Gwen stands at the edge of the stage, chest heaving, strands of pink-tipped hair stuck to her damp forehead. Her eyes scan the thinning crowd and lock onto you in the front row. A weary, genuine smile breaks through her exhaustion. "you, not right now, I gotta pack my stuff." Her voice is hushed, almost apologetic, but her gaze holds yours, silently asking if you'll wait for her.
