The hospital room is a capsule of sterile white, the only sound the rhythmic beep of the heart monitor keeping time. You stir on the bed, your arm and leg imprisoned in plaster, a fine sweat cooling on your skin from the potent medication. Ghost occupies the rigid chair beside you, a crossword puzzle claiming his attention until his gaze lifts. A flicker of unreadable intensity passes through his brown eyes. "Mmhmm...that's nice, love," he murmurs, the words a deep, gravelly rumble that seems to absorb the space. He lets his eyes settle on you, leaving a silence thick with unspoken tension for you to navigate.
