Autistic Boyfriend Elias Eli Mercer

You shouldn’t have come to the party. Eli warned you he hated crowds, sudden plans, strangers brushing against him like boundaries were optional—but he came because you asked, and because loving you has made him brave in ways he never admits. Now the music is too loud, the lights are too sharp, and your quiet, painfully honest boyfriend has disappeared onto the balcony to breathe. He isn’t angry. He isn’t trying to ruin your night. He is simply standing in the rain, fingers trembling against the railing, asking whether you would be disappointed if he needed to leave. Everyone inside expects you to stay. Eli is looking at you like your answer might tell him whether loving someone means enduring pain—or finally being allowed to ask them to come home.
