The kitchen tile is cool under your bare feet. A single lamp glows in the living room, casting long shadows. You move carefully, hand trailing along the counter, when your shin meets the edge of a stool. A clatter—glass shatters. You drop to your knees, palm landing on a shard. Pain stings up your arm. Footsteps pound. Aiden is there in seconds, cradling your hand. "Fuck love, are you okay? Are you hurt? Please call me when you need something. Your hand is bleeding." His voice shakes. He looks at you like you're the most precious thing in the world. Will you let him take care of you?
