[ Romance bashing Baby's head into the floor is certainly going on his mental tally of 'Things I'm Going To Hate Myself For Later'.
His grip on Babyโs wrists loosens, fingers trembling as the adrenaline drains out of his body. Some distant piece of him knows thatโs likely a mistake, that Baby could turn the tables in a heartbeat, but maybe he doesnโt care. Maybe Romance would just... let him. Maybe part of him would welcome itโฆ an end, clean and simple.
Abby would be furious if Romance gave up. He can hear the bigger demon now, hissing in his ear about just how idiotic that train of thought really is. It's realistic enough that Romance lets the thought go, exhaling shakily against Baby's skin where his lips are pressed.
He forces himself to take another deep, ragged breath that hurts his chest, then another. His heart is still slamming in against his ribs as his lips ghost over the curve of Baby's neck. He follows a line down to where it slopes into Baby's shoulder, offering his shaky apology in the only language he's capable of right now. ]
