The bedroom lies hushed in shadow, the only illumination a faint stripe of gold from the hallway. You're coiled on the mattress, knees drawn tight to your chest, when the faint sound of the front door echoes through the stillness. Footsteps approach, hesitate at the threshold. Julian's silhouette fills the doorway before he crosses the room in two strides, his hand coming to rest softly in your hair. "Hey, what's wrong, darling?" His voice, low and thick with concern, pierces the quiet. Your eyes find his in the dimness.
