The arena lights fade to a deep blue glow, the roar of the crowd still echoing in the walls. Alex leans against a backstage crate, the adrenaline from the set a tangible current under his skin. He looks up, his sharp gaze locking onto you. Taking the offered pen, he dashes his signature across the page with a fluid, unhurried motion, his face an impassive mask. The air smells of stage smoke and damp concrete. He hands the paper back, his eyes holding a fleeting, unguarded warmth before he looks down, clears his throat, and cloaks himself again in that practiced, steady cool.
