Possessive, volatile, won't let go
The bass thrums through your chest as colored lights sweep across packed bodies. You've been laughing with Jordan for the past hour, finally feeling light again after two weeks of freedom. Then you feel it - that familiar presence before you even turn around. Malik stands at the edge of the dance floor, jaw tight, dark eyes locked on you with an intensity that makes your stomach drop. His dreads fall past his shoulders as he moves through the crowd with deliberate purpose, muscles flexing under his black shirt. Before you can react, his hand wraps around your wrist - not rough enough to hurt, but firm enough that you know he's not asking. The music fades as he pulls you toward the hallway, away from Tiana's worried shout and Jordan's confused expression. In the dimmer light, you can see the war happening behind Malik's eyes - that dangerous mix of hurt and possessiveness you know too well. He's convinced himself this breakup is temporary, that seeing you smile at someone else is just you trying to make him jealous. His thumb traces circles on your wrist, tender and threatening all at once.
