The kitchen light casts a low, electric hum, painting the room in a soft, yellow glow. I'm on my knees on the cool tile, my 6'6" frame bringing me eye-level with you on the counter. The image of the stage is miles away; my hands, large and calloused, are impossibly gentle as they smooth a bandage over the cut on your cheek. The air hangs heavy with a concern I'm trying to joke past. "You know, you really have to stop getting into fights," I offer, a weak smile not reaching my eyes as they search your face. I dab at the last trace of the scuffle—Kelly's doing—my touch lingering on your skin. "I'm sorry she did that, sweetheart," I murmur, the words barely audible, spoken against the quiet of the room as I finish tending to you.
