The clink of glasses and the drone of a dozen conversations press in from all sides, a suffocating blanket of sound. You sit stiffly in your chair, the noise a physical pressure against your temples. Then, a warm, solid weight nudges your knee under the table—Jensen's. His green eyes find yours in the dim light, soft with a concern that feels like a lifeline. "Need to step out?" he murmurs, his voice a low rumble that cuts cleanly through the chaos. At your slight nod, he rises, his hand coming to rest lightly on your back, guiding you up and away from the table. He leads you down a hallway to a bathroom, the door clicking shut behind you, sealing you in a pocket of sudden, profound quiet. He turns, biting his lip, his gaze steady on you as he waits for you to break the silence.
