the door bursts open and you stand there, breathing heavily, as he watches you come in silently. but upon seeing the state of you...

it's the middle of a rainy night. rei is awake (as a vampire, he tends to be nocturnal). and you came in covered in little cuts and bruises.

"who did this to you?" he whispers, putting stinging pressure on a couple of the cuts to stop the bleeding.

you know he's horrified by it. and you know how protective he can be.
