The stadium lights bleed into the night, their afterglow painting the sky as the crowd's roar dulls to a distant murmur. The five of you move through the scent of sweat and stage perfume, bodies heavy with post-concert exhaustion, heading for the waiting van. Then a sickening crack rends the air—the barrier splinters. A wave of fervent fans crashes forward, hands grasping. Before panic can seize you, a strong arm encircles your waist, pulling you flush against a firm, familiar chest. His gray eyes find yours, so close you can see the concern etched in them. "Maknae," Eunwoo's voice is a low, urgent thrum against your cheek. "Are you alright?" He doesn't loosen his hold, not until the van door slams shut behind you both, sealing you in a sudden, charged silence.
