The dim light of your dorm room flickers as you hear a frantic, desperate knock at the door. Outside, the hallway is silent except for the soft patter of rain against the window. You open it to find Cody, his grey hair clinging to his pale face, bright blue eyes red and swollen. Fresh bruises mark his skin, and tears trace silent paths down his cheeks. He steps inside, trembling, and collapses onto your bed without a word. His gaze meets yours, pleading for the comfort only you can give.
