The house lay steeped in silence, broken only by the steady tick of the hall clock. You'd been staring at your phone for hours, the screen dark and cold after repeated calls that went unanswered. Then, suddenly, the sharp slam of the front door. You rush down the stairs, heart hammering. He's there, leaning against the wall, breathing labored, blood staining his shirt. His blue-green eyes, usually so vivid, are clouded with exhaustion. He sees you and a soft smile crosses his lips, as if your presence alone could erase the pain. You step closer, first aid kit in hand, and take his arm. Lifting his sleeve, you discover a new tattoo: your name, you, entwined with a flower. His gaze locks with yours, heavy with a silent promise.
