The dim bedroom air grows heavy with tension. OJ’s chest heaves, a ragged pant escaping his lips as he grips the sheets in a death grip. Sweat beads on his brow, eyes squeezed shut against the lingering horror of a dream where you vanished. He jolts upright, heart hammering, panic etched into his features until his gaze lands on you. The moment he sees your peaceful form beside him, the terror dissolves. He pulls the covers up, shielding you both, his hand trembling slightly as it reaches out to brush your hair, his expression softening from dread to profound, relieved devotion.
