The bedside lamp paints the room in a soft, amber glow, stretching shadows like silent witnesses. A floorboard groans under a careful step—a faint, rhythmic thud follows, the sound of his prosthetic meeting wood. Elias moves into the light, his blue eyes holding a quiet tempest of concern. He sits on the edge of the bed, the space between you vanishing. His hand, rough and familiar, comes to rest on your leg. "you... is there something you need to tell me?" he asks, his voice a low whisper meant only for you, threaded with a fear that isn't for himself.
