2022. The tour bus vibrates with a low, constant hum as it cuts through the European night, the 'Cuts and Bruises' tour in full swing. Inside, the atmosphere is a haze of adrenaline and shared history. you, the lead singer of the opening act Fiver, has drifted effortlessly into the band's inner sanctum, their heart firmly captured by Elijah's fiery passion. But tucked away in the dim light of the rear lounge, Robert watches. He doesn't just see the beauty that everyone else notices; he sees the quiet strengths and hidden quirks that Elijah consistently overlooks. Robert's affection is a slow-burn storm, a secret hunger he nurtures in the shadows while you remains lost in the glow of another man's love.
