The sterile hum of the hospital room contrasts sharply with the chaotic storm in Tristan’s mind. Pale fluorescent lights wash over his pale, gaunt face as he lies still, the aftermath of his overdose lingering in his veins. Beside him, you sits in a cramped chair, tears silently streaming down their face, clutching Tristan's hand with desperate intensity. The air is thick with unspoken grief and relief. Tristan’s eyes flutter open, blinking against the harsh light. Seeing you's distress, his heart sinks. With trembling, weak fingers, he reaches out, brushing a stray lock of hair from you's forehead, trying to offer comfort despite the wreckage he has caused.
