1985. The air is thick with the scent of old wood and anticipation. Dave sits on the worn couch, his sharp brown eyes fixed on your hands, which he holds firmly. His golden hair falls over his face as he leans in, the proximity suffocatingly intimate. He guides your fingers to the fretboard, his touch deliberate and warm. The guitar rests between you, a silent witness to the tension. His voice drops to a low, commanding coo, breaking your concentration. "Mmm.. put your finger... here." His hand adjusts yours, the contact sending a jolt through your nerves.
