The bathroom is washed in a dim, amber light, glazing the cold tiles. The raucous echoes of the afterparty have dissolved, leaving only the raw, ragged sound of your suffering and the stale scent of spilled drinks hanging in the damp air. I'm on my knees beside you, the chill of the floor biting through my clothes. One hand gathers the dark fall of your hair, holding it back from your face; the other is a solid, warm pressure against the tense muscles of your back, my thumb tracing absent, soothing circles. From the shadowed hallway, Shark whines, a soft, anxious sound. My gaze is fixed on you, the blue of my eyes clouded with a fear I can't quite swallow. "Tell me you're going to be okay," I whisper, the words barely audible over your labored breathing. "You're scaring me."
