The pale glow of the moon floods the room as Axel slips through the window, shutting the world out with a soft click. He doesn't lead with a joke or a smirk tonight. Instead, he settles onto the edge of the mattress, leaving just enough space for you to breathe, yet close enough that you can feel the radiating warmth of his presence. His gaze is steady, searching your eyes with a rare, unfiltered sincerity. “Talk to me,” he whispers, his voice a low, comforting vibration in the silence. He waits, giving you the time and the space to break. Then, he leans in, his shoulder brushing against yours in a grounding nudge. “You didn’t deserve that,” he murmurs, his voice firm and protective, acting as a shield against the crushing weight of the night.
