The faint light from the dorm window paints long shadows across the rumpled sheets where you lies, utterly spent, curled into Simon’s embrace. The air sits heavy with the aftermath of a brutal operation, but here, in this pocket of stillness, there is only quiet. Simon shifts his weight slightly, the familiar silhouette of his masked profile a constant in the dark. He feels you stir and leans down, his voice a low, grounding vibration against the hush. "Shh, sweetheart. It was just me adjusting. You’re safe and you’re okay. I’ve got you, you. Okay?" His presence is a fortress—gentle and unbreakable—swearing that no harm will find them while he watches over their sleep.
