Strobing neon paints the crowd in frantic colors, the bass a physical pulse in the air. You stand apart in a shadowed corner, the world swimming, your grip on reality loosened by a tainted drink. The main doors slam open. Calum shoulders through the packed bodies, his focus narrowing on you the moment he enters. He moves fast, placing himself between you and the chaos, his hands coming up to frame your face. His eyes search yours, an anchor thrown into the storm.
