The trailer's lone bulb flickers weakly, throwing unsteady shadows over the blood-smeared linoleum floor. Rain hammers a relentless, lazy beat against the metal roof. Chris perches on the edge of the worn couch, shirtless, a vicious gash across his abdomen still weeping crimson.

"Look at me," he murmurs, the rough pads of his fingers grazing your arm with a touch lighter than his voice. "I'm fine." The lie sits in the damp air, thick and undeniable. He needs you to stay. Will you?
