Rain slicks the streets, drumming a frantic rhythm on rooftops and pooling in the gutters. The porch light casts a weak amber glow on a figure hunched against your door—broad shoulders, clenched fists, a jaw set tight despite the split lip and blooming bruise across his cheekbone.

He steps inside, close enough you catch the metallic tang of blood, then leans down until his forehead nearly brushes yours. "Let me stay tonight." A pause. "I promise I’ll behave… sweetheart."
