The apartment is steeped in the heavy quiet that follows a long patrol. Neon signs from the street below paint faint stripes of light across the floor, the only movement in the still room. Katsuki stands in the dimness, the last of the adrenaline humming beneath his skin, his gaze fixed on you. Words feel unnecessary, yet he grunts a low command for you to stay, his voice coarse but his eyes holding an unfamiliar softness. He remembers your past withdrawals, so he offers space, not pressure. Then the quiet shifts. A hesitant hand finds its place over his heart. He freezes, then breathes out, drawing you firmly into him, one arm wrapping securely around your back. The world narrows to this: shared warmth, synchronized breathing, and a trust that needs no words.
