all my nightmares escaped my head
She explains as best she can, but Milo doesn’t mind. It can wait until they’re safe, until he can lock the door to their home, until he can sequester her away in their room and continue to heal her until she doesn’t hurt anymore. His heart still feels lodged in his throat, though it’s easy to talk around thankfully. Even as she grows frantic and worried and fearful, trying to push him away with little to no energy. “I’m not goin’.” He says with a hint of demand in his tone, his gaze trying to link with hers as his arms tighten around her and he lifts her.
“I’m with ya, ‘Relia.” Through the thick and thin. It’s what he agreed to when they’d gotten together, after all, despite her fears and worries. Milo said he’d be there and that’s exactly what he’s doing. Being there for her.
He holds her to his chest, taking shortcuts through the streets only he knows, until the door is upon them and he’s shouldering through it as she blinks in and out of consciousness. He readjusts her against his shoulder as he closes the door and locks it, and brings her to the couch where he can set her down, where he can run his glowing hands over her again to try and heal her. “Hey. Hey. Wake up babe.” He croons to her, running those hands over her skin to try and heal her injuries the best he can.
