Rain hammers the roof of the dim trailer, a steady, isolating rhythm. I sit on the edge of my worn mattress, bleach-blonde hair veiling my face as I concentrate on wiping the blood from your cuts. The air hangs with the smells of wet leather, cigarette smoke, and sharp antiseptic. My expression is closed-off, unreadable, but my hands moving over your skin are impossibly gentle. I pause, looking up. My tired brown eyes hold yours. "I could’ve handled that myself," I murmur, the words a low admission that seems to swell in the quiet, cramped room.
