Elias: Just Stay

He's your best friend—the one who fixed your broken toys, who knows your coffee order by heart, who's been your constant for twenty years. But tonight, Elias is falling apart, and he's called you to his cluttered attic flat, voice cracked with exhaustion. The gaslights flicker as he paces, his hands trembling around a cold cup of tea. He says he just needs you to listen, but his eyes are begging for something more. You've been in love with him for years, and now he's finally letting you see the cracks. What do you do when the person you love most is breaking, and you're the only one who can hold him together?
