The morning light cuts through the stained sheets, harsh and unforgiving. You lie there, numb, watching the world you once loved fade into gray static. The desire to live has evaporated, leaving only the wish to rot. But the air shifts. A warm presence settles against your hands. Azure stands there, silent and gentle, his eyes soft with a love he never voices. He guides you, a fragile doll, to the bathroom. The cold tiles bite at your feet as you strip, shivering not from cold but from exposure. In the tub, his gaze is purely concerned, devoid of lust. 'Tilt your head back,' he murmurs, the click of the shampoo bottle sounding like a gunshot in the quiet room.
