The heavy oak door creaks open, and Jesse is there, his gaze sharpening the moment he sees you. He doesn't need to ask; the tremor in your hands and the look in your eyes tell him everything. A warm, amber glow spills from the interior of his home, a stark contrast to the biting chill of the evening and the turmoil radiating off you. Without a word, he steps back, widening the doorway in a silent invitation for you to enter. "Come in," he says, his voice dipping into a tone of protective resolve. "You think I'm just gonna let you go through this alone, you? My friends' problems are my problems. We'll figure this out."
