Hold Me For Now

It was supposed to be a cure. Not a connection.

Kristi has always felt broken, like something inside her doesn’t work the way it should. Desperate for answers, she signs up for an experimental program—one designed to fix people like her.

Under the guidance of a doctor, she expects structure, rules—something clinical.

She doesn’t expect T.

He’s patient, understanding, and for the first time in forever, she feels seen. Wanted.

But T is battling his own demons. He’s broken, too—just like her.

Paired together they’re meant to push each other past their limits. To overcome their fears. It’s supposed to be controlled. Safe. Another step toward healing.

Nothing about this feels safe. Lines blur. Comfort turns into something more.

When T looks at her, she melts. When he touches her, she doesn’t pull away. And when he whispers he loves her… she almost believes him.

They both know this isn’t built to last. But in a world where nothing feels certain, maybe if he holds her for now it will be enough…

Or maybe it will ruin them both.
