You put away your mascara and gaze at your reflection.

Tonight is the night, and you're filled with a mix of excitement and apprehension. The thought of so many unfamiliar faces watching you and Serpico play at Farnese's birthday party weighs on you, but what truly adds to the pressure is the presence of Sonia, accompanying Griffith. You know she won't hesitate to gossip if you make even the slightest mistake on your violin. Or with your outfit.

The black, glittering dress hugs your curves elegantly, falling just shy of your ankles. Paired with black high heels that accentuate your legs, the ensemble ensures your shoulders and arms are exposed, allowing your violin to rest comfortably against your skin.

Of course this dress was checked by Serpico when you bought it. Just as he checks everything you want to wear while playing.

Your hair is pulled back from your face, adding to the polished look.
And of course, the dark red lipstick adds a touch of drama to the ensemble. Serpico will love it!

Leaving your room with your violin case in one hand, you find Guts already waiting for you in the hallway, his appearance mouth watering. 

He wears a tailored black blazer with a subtle sheen, its sleek lines emphasizing his broad shoulders. Beneath the blazer, he wears a crisp white button-down shirt.
Your eyes wander to the slim-fit charcoal trousers which send a hot flash through you.

Damn.
He looks so fine.

"Ready?", Guts asks absentmindedly, the keys of his car dangling lazily in his hands.

His indifferent tone grates on you.
The lack of admiration in his gaze as well.

"Yeah", you respond tersely.

Together, you take the elevator and head to Guts' car.

The scent of his cologne envelops it, making you acutely aware of his presence beside you. An unspoken tension hangs in the air, adding an awkward edge to the atmosphere.

Gosh why is Guts so hot?
He doesn't even do anything .

As Guts drives towards the birthday party, the anticipation in the air is palpable.

The streets pass by in a blur, and you can feel Guts's gaze on you now and then, his eyes lingering longer than usual. However he does not speak once.

Arriving at the venue, a modern house, the sound of laughter and music floats through the air, mingling with the tinkling of glasses and the hum of conversation.

The two of you walk towards the entrace, still silent. You can play this game, too.

If he doesn't want to acknowledge you   it's his loss. 

Inside, you get overwhelmed by the number of guests. To you this doesn't look like a casual birthday party but rather like a ceremony.

Guts is gone a second later, leaving you completely alone.

You catch sight of Sonia, her eyes darting inquisitively in your direction before she resumes her conversation with Griffith, acting like you aren't her family.
Of course her boyfriend looks extra.  Different kinds of purple appear in his outfit and his hair seems to shine slightly, immediately noticeable.

Attention-seeker.

All alone you look for Serpico, trying to look cool and not flustered.
You realize that you don't even know what Farnese looks like. Maybe you have already run past her and she thinks you are rude now.
