tw: blood, mentions of abuse

Luke

What just happened? I'm laid in a puddle of blood. My head is pounding. There are shards of glass embedded in my face.

Then I remember.

Nico... He deliberately tripped me.
He lied to me!
"Nico!" I roar, getting to my feet. There's no reply. He must be hiding. "Nico! Get in here this instant!" I shout. Still no reply. I'm going to kill him when I find him.

I start searching the house, but I can't find him anywhere. He's run away!

I look outside and realise it's dark. I check my watch. It's almost midnight. It was two in the afternoon when we started fighting. He's probably been gone for the whole ten hours, or maybe even a whole day!

He might have told somebody.
What if he told the police? Or some meddling people who think they know better than me?

I need to find him. And fast.
