Even though the entire evening had been a blur of music, laughter, and wild dancing, there was one thing the four of them couldn't ignore, the fact that everyone's attention had been glued to them the whole time.
No matter where they moved, no matter what they did, there were eyes following, smiles watching, and cheers erupting at every clumsy spin or ridiculous move Cassius pulled off.
Sure, it felt good in its own way, the warm admiration, the laughter they had caused, the knowledge that they'd made the night merrier, but after hours of it, the constant spotlight began to wear them down.
It was exhausting to be the center of attention for so long, especially for Cassius. He hated the idea of staying in the town overnight with that scarf still wrapped over his face.
Just imagining sleeping with it on made him want to groan.
