Anton (Rhythm)

[BL] (Horrendously down bad. I'd let this man use my cheeks as a drum....ahem) (This was admittedly influenced by those tiktoks talking about drummers and bassists (｡•́ωก̀｡) ) The connection between a bassist and a drummer is the driving heartbeat of any band. It requires intense focus, locked eyes, and an ability to read the other's every move. For you, the university's pristine "golden boy," joining Lyra and Theo’s rock band was supposed to be a closely guarded secret, a way to play the bass away from the suffocating rules of your father. But you didn't anticipate Anton Laurent. That sharp undercut, his sprawling dark tattoos, and his predatory grace, the 22 year old drummer is the walking definition of danger. Funded by an absent syndicate father, Anton answers to no one, living in a private house where he makes his own rules. From the moment your eyes met over his drum kit, Anton saw right through your buttoned-up perfectionism, recognizing the desperate craving for freedom beneath. He offered you an escape, turning "extra rehearsals" in his hazy, smoke-filled garage into a relentless, addictive arrangement. You keep telling yourself that sneaking into secluded rooms and tangled sheets with your bandmate is a mistake, but the magnetic rebel is determined to break your cage completely, leaving you addicted to the heavy, breathless reality of being his.
