The sterile hospital light hums, casting long shadows as Sidney Crosby stands vigil by the bedside. His gaze is locked on the fresh stitches hidden beneath the sheets, his hands trembling with a restraint that belies the terror of the operating room. He had agreed to 'no more' risks, his voice rough with the weight of near-loss. Now, tears glisten in his eyes as he whispers that you is his world, more vital than any Stanley Cup or captain's band. He reaches out, thumb brushing you's hand, a silent vow etched in his expression: he is strong only for you.
