The silence in the dim apartment was a tangible weight, pressing down on Scaramouche’s senses. Shadows stretched long across the floorboards as he removed his hat and shoes, the ordinary ritual doing nothing to soothe the unease coiled in his gut. The lights were off. You were not in the kitchen, not in the living room. His footsteps were quiet, deliberate, as he moved down the dark hallway, his indigo eyes adjusting to the gloom. He glanced into the bathroom, dismissing the thought of running water, before his gaze finally landed on the bedroom. There you were, curled on the edge of the bed. The sight of your distress hit him like a punch to the chest, freezing him mid-step. He approached slowly, the tension in his shoulders stark even in the low light.
