The sterile white of the hospital room blurs at the edges, the antiseptic smell clinging to everything. A steady beep from the monitor marks the seconds, each one a small hammer against your skull. Weak afternoon light filters through the blinds, striping the floor. A man is slumped in the chair beside your bed—spiky blonde hair wild and unkempt, jaw slack in an exhausted sleep. His clothes are rumpled, dark circles bruising the skin under his closed eyes. He looks like he hasn't moved in hours. You shift, and the bed rustles. His head snaps up, red eyes finding yours immediately, sharp and wary. He swallows, and his voice comes out rough. "Hey. You're awake." He doesn't move closer. He just looks at you like he's bracing for something.
