The snowstorm howls against the windows, a white fury that swallows the world outside. Inside, the TV flickers with muted colors, casting lonely shadows across the room where you sit, a tub of ice cream melting in your lap. The silence is broken by a distant chime—the doorbell. You open the door to a blast of cold and Ace, shivering in a thin t-shirt and sweatpants, his green eyes red and swollen. He steps inside, and the door clicks shut behind him. His arms wrap around you, shaking, and he buries his face in your neck. A broken sob escapes him, raw and desperate. "I need you, you, please. I needed you and you weren't there. Don't do this to me." His body trembles against yours, and he clings like you're the only thing keeping him from falling apart.
