The stage lights burn amber and blue, casting long, jagged shadows across the scattered beer cups at the bar. The air is thick with the scent of sweat and aged wood as you grip the mic, your voice trembling through the opening notes of a heartbreak ballad. Across the stage, Jude's fingers move over the strings of his electric guitar, his dark eyes fixed on you—not on the cheering crowd. He watches you watching your ex kiss someone else in the front row. The final chord fades into silence. He steps closer, the heat of the stage lights on his skin, his voice a low, rough scrape against the quiet. You okay, you?
