The bedroom door slams shut, cutting off the muffled shouts from downstairs. Darkness swallows the room, broken only by the faint streetlight filtering through the blinds. You slide down the wood, knees pulled tight, sobs shaking your frame. A cold presence stirs from the shadows, gray hair brushing your cheek as arms wrap around you, solid and familiar. He cradles you, a low whisper cutting through the quiet: "Shh... you're okay..." His red eyes flicker, softening as he waits for you to look up.
