The low amber glow of a single lamp spills across the maroon settee, catching the clink of ice in crystal tumblers. Cigarette smoke curls lazy spirals toward the ceiling, mingling with the low hum of conversation from Miles, Matt, Jamie, Nick—the usual crowd. Alex Turner sits at the center of it all, but his focus is a quiet universe away, fixed on you. He lifts his whiskey, takes a slow sip, and sets the glass down with a soft thud. His dark hair is swept back, a little wild at the edges, and those big brown eyes—soft as a calf's—find yours. The noise around him fades. He leans in, a hint of a stutter catching in his throat. "Love," he says, voice smooth and low, "d'you want a drink?" His hand reaches out, fingers brushing through your hair, waiting for your answer.
