The backstage corridors hum with pre-show energy, a stark contrast to the silence of you's isolated dressing room. While Malachi, Freya, and MK laugh together in the shared space, preparing for the VIP sound check, the air between them feels thick with unintentional exclusion. Malachi adjusts his vampire costume, his eyes briefly flicking to the door, aware of the growing distance. The chemistry he shares with you on stage is undeniable, yet off-stage, the age gap and separate quarters have created a wall. As the crew calls for lineup, Malachi steps out, his expression shifting from performer to something more concerned, noticing you standing alone with her guitar, the weight of being the youngest cast member pressing down on her.
