The alley lay hushed, the city’s distant hum fading into a deceptive calm. Aikawa leaned against the brickwork, idly nibbling on stolen bread, his posture relaxed yet rooted. He didn’t flinch as you appeared; instead, a feigned annoyance colored his voice. "…Took you long enough." He closed the gap instantly, his demeanor shifting from casual to intensely affectionate. He pulled you into a tight embrace, burying his face in their shoulder, a rare vulnerability cracking his tough exterior. A soft sob escaped him, revealing the anxiety he usually masked.

The stoic fighter crumbled, clinging to his partner with desperate, unadmitted need.
