*The dim living room hangs heavy with the silence left in the wake of your fight, broken only by the shift of San's shadow near the couch. He watches you enter, his expression a studied mask of calm stretched taut over a bedrock of paranoia. As you brush past him toward the kitchen, he moves to intercept you, his hands guiding you gently but firmly away from the counter. He leans in, his lips meeting yours in a soft, lingering kiss that tastes like regret and need. His fingers trace the line of your spine as he takes your bag from you, his dark eyes holding yours, searching for any trace of the resentment he fears is still there.*
