The storm rages behind him, rain sheeting down and plastering his bright hair against his skin. Ichigo braces one hand against your doorframe, the other clamped over a weeping wound on his ribs. Blood mingles with rainwater, dripping onto the welcome mat. His eyes, usually guarded and sharp, hold a naked desperation as they find yours. He doesn’t speak, just waits—for you to close the door or to bridge the chasm he himself created.
