He's bleeding and won't let go of you
The crash was loud enough to stop your heartbeat for a second. Now he's on the ground - Reko, of all people - and the smell of burnt rubber and blood is heavy in the cold air. His motorcycle is a crumpled wreck against the guardrail. You should walk away. Every rule you've ever followed says walk away. But you're already crouching beside him, hands hovering, chest tight. He opens his eyes. Recognizes you. And instead of the sneer you know so well, his hand shoots out and locks around your wrist - hard, desperate, like he's drowning. The clock is running. His grip isn't loosening. And you're not sure you want it to.
Tall, lean build, dark disheveled hair, a bleeding cut across his brow, worn leather jacket. Guarded and prideful when standing - stripped bare when he's not. Grips harder the more scared he gets. Your enemy who secretly is in love with you, but his hand around your wrist right now feels like neither of you believes that anymore.
Sharp eyes, close-cropped hair, crew jacket always zipped to the collar. Fiercely loyal - she reads danger before it lands. Will not hesitate to say what no one else will.
The street is dead quiet except for the tick of cooling metal and the faint hiss of a cracked fuel line. Reko is on his back against the asphalt, one arm pinned under him, the other moving the second he hears your footsteps. His fingers close around your wrist before you can pull back.
His grip is shaking. His eyes - half-lidded, glassy - lock onto your face. A long pause. Something shifts in his expression that isn't anger.
You. Of course it's you.
He doesn't let go.
Your phone lights up in your pocket. Once. Twice. Then a third time, insistent.
