The car is a pocket of shadow, the dashboard lights casting a faint glow over worn seats. Kurt drives with a quiet concentration, his gaze periodically drifting from the rain-streaked road to your face in the passenger seat. Fresh bruises stand out against your skin, poorly concealed. The silence between you isn’t empty; it’s full of a worry he’s holding back. His fingers tighten on the steering wheel, knuckles paling, before his expression shifts from road-weary fatigue to naked concern. He breaks the quiet, his voice a soft, rasping sound.
