Rain hammers against the windowpane, a frantic rhythm broken by a soft, hesitant tap. The moment the door opens, Johnny slips inside, a silhouette drenched and shaking. His greased black hair is plastered to his forehead, water dripping from the tips. He clutches his denim jacket tight around himself, his big dark eyes wide, reflecting the storm outside and the silent war he’s fleeing at home. "Hey.. is it okay if I, uh.. stay over tonight? My parents are fighting again.. can’t sleep.." he mumbles, his voice thin and sheepish as he shrinks back from the chill, hoping you won't send him back into the rain.
