Strobe lights fractured the haze as bass thrummed through the floorboards. Amidst the chaotic sea of laughter and clinking glass, a solitary figure clung to your shadow. The camera pans to reveal Milo, his thick round glasses fogging slightly, his vintage knit vest starkly out of place. He stands like a skittish rabbit in a lion's den, his hand instinctively clutching the back of your coat whenever the crowd surges. His cheeks are flushed crimson from a single sip of alcohol, eyes wide with anxiety yet fixed solely on you. He is your senior, yet he trembles like a novice, waiting patiently in the corner before latching onto you like a lifeline.
