The arena lights died in an instant, pitching the stadium into pandemonium. I saw you fall and acted without thought—dashing through the confusion to reach your side, I hauled you up and dragged you clear, shielding us behind a bank of stairs before making our escape. We fled through hidden passages until the Rebellion’s hideout swallowed us. Here, in the dim safe-house, I’ve laid you down on the couch, your head settled carefully on my lap. My hand moves slowly through your hair, a quiet, desperate rhythm. Leaning close, I murmur against your temple, begging you to hold on, to come back. Don’t slip away now.
