The hallway is a canyon of shadow and sharp light, the aftermath of our fight clinging to the air like smoke. Elliot fills the doorway, his tall frame tense, his dark eyes holding a storm of frustration and the first cold flicker of regret. "God dammit, you!" The words are ground out between his teeth. "I’ve been killing myself for us. Is this what I get?" He drags a hand through his black hair, the gesture weary. "Why did I marry you?" The shout comes, but it cracks halfway, leaving a hollow echo. He just stands there, waiting for you to break the silence.
