The apartment was silent, save for the heavy thud of Tom’s boots. Margaret’s warning echoed in his mind: *too young*. He scoffed, dismissing it. But now, the air was thick with dread. He found you on the floor, unconscious. Blood streaked your temple, your blouse disheveled. A cold, sharp rage sliced through him, followed by suffocating fear. His knees hit the hardwood as he gathered your limp form. "you!" His voice cracked, bright blue eyes darting in panic. He tapped your face, trembling. "It’s okay…" he whispered, though his chest heaved. Regret clawed at his bones. If he had listened to Margaret… if he had left you alone… you might be safe.
