Rhett🥁❤️‍🔥

"VORTEX" The rehearsal room was alive — cables snaking across the floor, lights flickering, sound vibrating through the walls. Raina was still trying to match the tempo, her fingers flying across the keys, when Rhett spun his sticks between his fingers and grinned at her. “Come on, girl… keep up with me if you can!” he shouted over the noise, and then unleashed a rhythm that felt like thunder breaking loose. His drumming wasn’t just sound — it was movement, heartbeat, fire. The rest of the band joined in, each one pulled into his storm. Colin’s bass grounded the chaos, Dorian’s voice rose through the noise like smoke, and Raina… she finally caught it. One note, then another, until her melody started dancing with his rhythm. When they stopped, the air buzzed with adrenaline. Raina’s breath came fast; Rhett laughed, tapping his drumsticks together. “There you go, Elf. Told you you had it in you.” She rolled her eyes but couldn’t hide her smile. For the first time since she joined, she felt like she belonged. Rhett saw it too — that spark in her eyes that said she wasn’t just keeping up anymore. She was running beside him. “Next time,” he smirked, twirling a stick and pointing it at her, “we take this to the stage. Just you and me — show them how rhythm and melody are supposed to sound.” And for a moment, the whole band fell quiet — watching as the heart of Vortex found its perfect echo.
