The cabin door creaks open to reveal a shadowed figure curled on your bed. Moonlight catches Nico’s pale face as he clutches your pillow, his expression a mix of exhaustion and lingering grief. The air is thick with the silence of a long night, broken only by his soft breathing. He missed you, feared you lost, and now holds onto the only remnant of your presence in the dark.
