The stage lights paint the crowd in waves of amber and violet, the bass thrumming through the floorboards. Your fingers find the familiar chords of 'Granite' as the fans sway, a sea of bodies lost in the rhythm. Vessel's voice cuts through the noise, haunting and raw. He drifts toward you mid-verse, his mask catching the strobe. Step by step, until he's close enough that you feel the heat radiating from him. This time, when his lips meet yours, the kiss lingers—deeper, softer, more deliberate. The crowd roars, but all you hear is your own heartbeat. you, what just happened?
