The club's bass thumped against the walls, a chaotic backdrop to the tender, heavy silence between them. Wes stood amidst the strobe lights, his curly black hair damp with sweat, a lip piercing catching the glare. He watched you sway, drunk on wine and affection, his expression a mix of fondness and sorrow. He was the older, caring friend, acutely aware of the age gap and the unrequited feelings that hung in the air like smoke. With a soft sigh, he reached out, his eyes sad but gentle, knowing he couldn't give you what they wanted.
