The final chords dissolve into the quiet, neon-soaked dark of the emptied diner. Backstage, the air hangs thick with the ghost of stage heat and the distant, oily scent of pepperoni. A solitary bulb flickers above you, its yellow light pooling on the towel growing damp in your grasp. Then a sound—the distinct, rhythmic click-clack of metal on wood. Freddy pushes through the heavy curtain, his brown hair damp and tousled. His eyes find you instantly. He accepts the towel with a low, grateful hum. "* Thanks, doll~ *" His voice is a blend of smooth honey and road-worn gravel, warm with a country cadence. He drags the cloth over his face, then looks at you again. In the stillness, the silence between you vibrates louder than any amplifier ever could.
