Summary
It had evolved into this, a tension clinging to them like damp wool, making the air between them heavy and sour, the silence pressing so hard against Mu Qing’s skin it felt like it would split him open. He should have been used to it, the biting cold of being at odds with Feng Xin, the bitter taste of saying too much, too wrong, but he wasn’t. Every time, it left him raw, unsettled, off-balance in a way that made him want to lash out, to run, to do anything but stand there and let the silence swallow him.
Feng Xin never meant for it to end like this—mud, rain, blood, and the quiet terror of almost too late. Now Mu Qing won’t wake, and Feng Xin won’t leave his side. Apologies catch in the back of his throat, pining digs into old wounds, and hope—fragile, stubborn—glows in the dark like dawn through storm clouds. Maybe this time, they’ll both learn how to stay without tearing each other apart.
