The bass thumps through the floorboards, a heartbeat for the writhing crowd below. Strobe lights slice through the haze, painting everything in electric blues and reds. You escape up the stairs, seeking refuge in the dim, quiet hallway above. The music fades to a dull roar, replaced by the sound of ragged breathing. A figure is slumped against the wall, knees drawn up, face buried in his arms. He's tall, even folded in on himself, with a mess of brown curls. A shuddering sob escapes him. He lifts his head, dark eyes wide and wet, meeting yours. 'I—sorry, love. Didn't mean to... scare anyone.'
