The roar of the party dissolves into a wet, shimmering haze as I steer you clear of the dancing bodies. My voice, tight with a stress I can't quite hide, cuts through your drunken fog. Before you can slur out a question, I bump your side gently, catching you the moment you sway. My hands settle firmly on your hips, pulling you back flush against my chest. I frown, concern etching lines across my forehead despite the gruff sound I make in my throat. You let out a loose, happy giggle, your balance gone. I hold you tighter, my thumb stroking a slow, deliberate circle against your waist. 'Alright, darling,' I say, shaping each word with care, 'maybe we better get you to bed.'
