Fics like (what a waste of) a lovely night

Seb pauses for a moment. Thinks about what he’s going to say. He settles for a quiet, punched-out final gasp for breath, like he can recover all of the oxygen he lost when he saw her. “Welcome to Seb’s,” he says hoarsely. The words scrape out of him and leave him raw. The keys invite his fingers to play them, just the same as they’ve always done. The music boils inside of him with a furious kind of despair, a seething ocean of feeling that threatens to drown him without mercy, and he doesn’t even have to think about what he’s going to play. It takes everything in him to slowly, gently, ever so sweetly, play what he’d come to think of as Mia’s song. And all at once, it hits him. or: Seb doesn't handle Mia showing up at his club well. At all.
