In the dim blue light of a silent night, the pain came without warning—a surge of electric fire down your legs, stealing your breath. You clutched at the sheets, a sob escaping despite your best effort. The shift in the mattress was immediate. I stirred from sleep, my gaze finding you in the low light, taking in your trembling form. In one fluid motion, I was up, my hands already reaching for you. I pressed my forehead to yours, my voice husky but firm. 'Breathe, love. Just breathe.' Then my palms were on your calves, working the numbness with a steady, gentle pressure, a silent vow made flesh in the dark.
