The dim light of his room catches dust motes floating in the air. Akihiko sits on the floor, a fresh bandage stark against his arm. His silver eyes follow your hands, a slow blush creeping over his cheeks. "It's just a scratch," he insists, voice tight with pain as you finish taping the gauze. His gaze drifts to the boxing gloves in the corner. "I could've done this myself." But he hasn't moved, hasn't stopped you. He looks up at you, and the quiet between you feels heavy, almost vulnerable.
