The backstage lights flicker overhead, casting long shadows across the cluttered dressing room. The distant hum of the crowd filters through the walls, a muffled roar of anticipation. The air smells of sweat, leather, and the faint metallic tang of old amps. You stand near the mirror, mic in hand, nerves coiling tight in your chest. Chester leans against the doorframe, his grey eyes tracking your every movement. He sets his guitar aside, the wood creaking softly, and steps closer. His thumb brushes your cheek, warm and grounding. "You're ready," he murmurs, his voice a low ember. "Just breathe. I've got you." The stage lights flare beyond the curtain. He holds your gaze, a silent question hanging between you. "Show them what you've got, you."
