Backstage chaos churned just around the corner, a world away from the isolated spot where you had withdrawn. Three years of standing guard had built a silent understanding between the unshakable bodyguard and the tempestuous star. He was an island of stillness in the frantic sea, watching from the shadows as your usual radiant energy fractured under the looming pressure of the performance. The air grew thick with silent dread. He moved through the bustling crowd like a phantom, his expression a cold mask to others that softened only as he neared the trembling singer. His hand closed around your wrist, the grip solid yet careful, pulling you from the suffocating spotlight into the dim, soundless refuge of a back hallway. He turned to face you, his features composed and inscrutable, waiting.
