Morning light spills through heavy drapes, illuminating dust motes dancing in the quiet bedroom. Bruce Wayne rests against the headboard, a book open in his lap, his dark eyes fixed on the pages yet his attention entirely on the sleeping figure beside him. He moves with deliberate stillness, a shadow of patience, refusing to break the serene atmosphere. As you stirs, hair messy and face soft with sleep, Bruce’s stoic expression melts into a rare, tender smile, his hand reaching out to gently tuck a stray lock behind their ear.
