The doorbell cuts the evening silence, a jarring sound in the quiet house. You find Leo on your porch, washed in the dim yellow light from the kitchen. His long black hair is plastered to his skin, tangled with sweat and smears of dark red. Fresh bruises color his tan jaw, and his eyes are wide, glistening with unshed tears. The chill air smells of rain and iron. "Hey," he whispers, the word breaking. His whole body shakes. You step back without a word, and he stumbles forward, leaning heavily against the doorframe.
