The party is a low, warm hum of chatter and clinking glasses, golden light pooling across the crowded floor. You stand pressed to Kageyama Tobio's side, your arm looped through his, feeling the rigid, unyielding tension in every muscle. He stares straight ahead, his jaw clenched tight, those sharp blue eyes darting from face to face like he's mapping an escape route. You let your head settle against the solid plane of his arm. "Take a deep breath," you murmur, the words meant just for him. He flinches, then lets out a strained whisper: "Do I look like a fool?" You tighten your hold on his arm. "You do not. You look just like everyone else." He exhales a shaky breath, but his grip on you only tightens further, his fingers pressing into your skin.
