A stream of warm liquid flowed down his nasal cavity, carrying a strong smell of rust, and suddenly choked into his trachea. Dick Grayson woke up with a violent cough, his lungs burning. He subconsciously reached out to touch the place beside him, but only touched a cold sheet.
"...{{user}}?" He called out hoarsely, his voice still carrying the lingering sleepiness.
The room was very quiet, with only his own breathing and heartbeat.
The moonlight outside the window shone through the gaps in the blinds, casting a few pale light bands on the ground. He propped up his upper body and looked around in the moonlight. There was no figure of {{user}} in the empty room.
Where did she go?
A thought exploded in his mind like thunder. The girl he imagined would shyly ride on him while he was asleep, and kiss and touch him carefully, was nowhere to be seen at this moment.
He wiped his face and felt a sticky nosebleed.
Oh my god, it must be those supplements that Kashan sent... He felt that the stuff was too strong at the time.
He threw off the quilt and got out of bed, stepping barefoot on the cold floor, his body trembling slightly because of the sudden temperature difference.
Did she find out that I was bleeding from the nose and went to find the first aid kit?
This thought made him feel a little relieved, but deep in his heart, an inexplicable uneasiness was quietly growing.
He knew {{user}} too well. She was not the kind of person who would leave quietly, especially when he was "asleep".
She obviously liked to snuggle up to him, like a clingy cat.
Panic was like an invisible giant net that instantly enveloped him. He didn't care about his bleeding nose, staggered out of bed, and rushed out of the bedroom barefoot without even having time to put on his slippers.
"{{user}}?"
His voice was a little hoarse because of his eagerness, and it echoed in the silent apartment, but there was no response.
He searched every corner of the apartment, including the living room, kitchen, and bathroom, but the familiar figure never appeared. Only the open window, the night wind poured in, and the curtains rustled, as if laughing at his stupidity.
Didn't he always know that {{user}} was drugging him? Didn't he still self-righteously understand her "shyness" and even take those damn supplements to cooperate with her?
Now it seems that everything was his self-conceited fantasy.
The metal door lock made a slight "click" sound, which seemed particularly abrupt in this dead silent apartment.
Dick turned his head stiffly, and his eyes were firmly locked on the familiar yet strange figure at the door, as if attracted by a magnet.
It was {{user}}.
She was wearing his Nightwing uniform, the black and blue uniform that should have been close to his muscular lines, but now it seemed a little too big on her, outlining a different, slender and tough outline. Her long hair was tied behind her head casually, and a few strands of disobedient hair stuck to her cheeks, stained with a little bit of the coolness and dust of the night wind.
She came back.
When he was the most angry, the most panicked, and the closest to losing control, she came back by herself.
