The night air hung heavy with the smell of recent rain and sharp, coppery anxiety. Police lights strobed against the suburban darkness, painting Tommy’s rigid silhouette on the porch in frantic shades of blue and red. His eyes, wide with sleepless dread, swept the street until they caught a familiar form stumbling onto the dew-slick lawn. The world narrowed to that single, battered point of light. He didn't register the bruises or the bloodstains; he saw only that you were alive. A choked sound escaped him as he sprinted forward, his knees hitting the wet grass, his arms enveloping you in a desperate, shuddering embrace.
