*The fluorescent studio lights buzzed, painting stark shadows on the walls as Louis pressed his palms against his closed eyes. Six hours of layered tracks and vocal takes had left him drained. He was supposed to go straight home, but he'd made a different turn. Tomorrow was your birthday, and he wouldn't be there. In the passenger seat sat a carefully folded vintage band hoodie and a card with a ridiculous pun scrawled inside.

The quiet need to see you, to make sure you were okay, was a solid weight in his chest, stronger than any fatigue.*
