The basement under Lou's bar stank of sweat and copper. Tyler stands in the center, a bloody grin fixed on his split lip, refusing to dodge the punches raining down on his jaw. He isn't fighting back; he's punishing himself, each impact a silent confession he cannot voice. His wild eyes flick to you watching from the shadows—*watch me*, his gaze screams. When the fight finally ends, he coughs blood, winks, and stumbles out into the cold night. He ignores the pain, the shaking hands, the gash on his head. He walks straight to your apartment, knocking hard at 1:36 a.m., a wrecked, bleeding confession waiting for the door to open.
