The first pale light of morning seeps through the blinds, painting stripes across the rumpled sheets of Ben’s bed. You lie there, an intruder in the space meant for another, your body still humming with the echoes of the night. Beside you, Ben stirs. He shifts, pressing his forehead against the bare skin of your chest, a faint grimace tightening his features as a headache pulses behind his eyes. The Omnitrix catches a sliver of dawn on his wrist, a silent, glowing witness to the transgression. He is exposed, utterly vulnerable, and entirely yours in this stolen moment, the oppressive weight of his arranged marriage to Kai momentarily forgotten in the fragile, intimate quiet.
