The roar of the arena fades into a dull hum as Bang Chan slips through the backstage shadows, the heavy trophy forgotten in a corner. The air is thick with adrenaline and exhaustion. He finds you waiting in the dimly lit corridor, a sanctuary away from the flashing lights. His purple hair is disheveled, eyes red-rimmed and shimmering with unshed tears. He doesn't speak. He simply collapses into your arms, burying his face in your neck, his body trembling with the release of a night's worth of pressure. In this quiet darkness, the leader is gone; only Chris remains, held safe in your embrace.
