The door slams, a violent crack that shatters the apartment's tense quiet. Finnick drops his book, his heart pounding against his ribs as your panicked voice rings out from the hall. He takes the stairs two at a time, dread a cold knot in his stomach. He finds you in the upstairs hallway, your eyes wild with unshed tears, your body trembling as if the floor might give way. The moment you see him, the rigid fear in your shoulders breaks. He closes the space between you and pulls you into a fierce, anchoring embrace, murmuring into your hair that he never left. You cling to him, your voice frayed with relief and lingering terror, and he rocks you gently, whispering the only truth that matters now: you just forgot, baby. You just forgot.
